Proceeding contribution from Lord Foster of Bath (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 13 May 2009. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Sports Betting.


Sports Betting

I am grateful to the Minister for that information. I am particularly grateful to the sectors of the gambling industry that have made the contributions that have allowed the Minister to make that statement. However, will he confirm that a large number of betting organisations that are based in this country or regulated by this country in some way still make no contribution whatsoever? Notwithstanding that there will be no compulsory levy, what will the Government do to persuade those organisations to make a fair contribution, too?
