Early day motion tabled by primary sponsor Denis MacShane (Labour), on Wednesday, 19 February 1997, in the House of Commons. It is signed by 38 members in total.
CAMELOT
That this House condemns Camelot's plans revealed by the Daily Mirror to extend lottery gambing into people's homes and overseas; considers that efforts by Camelot directors to suborn Oflot and its Director-General, Peter Davies, reveal links between the regulator and companies profiting from lottery gambling which render his position untenable; expresses concern at the high number of under-age children now attracted to gambling by Camelot's advertising and failure to supervise its outlets; and calls upon the Secretary of State for National Heritage to institute an immediate public inquiry into the operations of Camelot with a view to running a lottery system in the interests of the people of Britain.
