answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 23/07/2018 answer text <p>The table in the attached document shows the Big Lottery Fund spending per capita in each local authority area in <ins class="ministerial">2017-18</ins><del class="ministerial">2016-17</del>. However, this data does not present an accurate comparison of the benefits from Big Lottery Fund spending for several reasons:</p><p>a) Funding is often provided over several years, but the data shows this in the year that the grant is awarded. For example an award of £600,000 for a five year long project, would be reported as £600,000 of funding in year one, and no funding in years two to five.</p><p>b) the data reflects the geographical location of the funding recipient, but many projects reach far beyond the local authority where the funding recipient is located. An extreme example of this is the City of London, which has a small population but which was the location of funding recipients running two large nationwide projects. Conversely, areas that show no funding in <ins class="ministerial">2017-18</ins><del class="ministerial">2016-17</del> have benefited from Big Lottery funded projects which have a primary location elsewhere.</p><p>c) Island communities can also be outliers. Delivering a project usually involves a minimum fixed cost, so local authorities with very small populations will generally show a larger spend per capita than local authorities with higher populations.</p> answering member constituency Chatham and Aylesford answering member printed Tracey Crouch question first answered 23/07/2018 17:22:20 question first ministerially corrected 02/08/2018 08:24:31 answering member 3950 label Biography information for Dame Tracey Crouch attachment 1 file name 165029 supporting data.pdf title Big Lottery Fund spending per capita 2016-17 previous answer version 71584 answering member constituency Chatham and Aylesford answering member printed Tracey Crouch answering member 3950 label Biography information for Dame Tracey Crouch attachment 1 file name 165029 supporting data.pdf title Big Lottery Fund spending per capita 2016-17

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 23/07/2018 answer text <p>Our Review of Gaming Machines and Social Responsibility looked at the evidence and protections around gambling advertising. A major survey of evidence by Per Binde, published in 2014, found the impact of advertising on the prevalence problem gambling was likely to be rather small, as one factor among many which make up the environment, although it identified areas for further research. Significant research has been commissioned by GambleAware into the impact of gambling advertising on children, young people and those vulnerable to harm. This is due to be completed next year.</p><p> </p><p>The Gambling Commission carries out an annual survey of gambling behaviour among 11-16 year olds in Great Britain. In 2016 and 2017 this found that there was little evidence of a direct influence of advertising on gambling activity, with 1% of young people in the survey saying advertising prompted them to start gambling or increase the amount they gamble.</p> answering member constituency Chatham and Aylesford answering member printed Tracey Crouch question first answered 23/07/2018 12:53:39 answering member 3950 label Biography information for Dame Tracey Crouch
