<p>As I made clear at Departmental Oral Questions on 14 September, I am determined
that the gambling industry acknowledges its social responsibilities, including properly
funding the work undertaken by GambleAware, and other organisations, on research,
education and treatment for gambling-related harm.</p><p> </p><p>The industry currently
contributes over £8 million per year to GambleAware. GambleAware is seeking to increase
this to £10 million per year in line with work that has been done by the Responsible
Gambling Strategy Board (RGSB) to cost the short term work of delivering the National
Responsible Gambling Strategy.</p><p> </p><p>The industry must step up and fulfill
their obligations under these new targets.</p><p> </p><p><strong> </strong></p>
