Proceeding contribution from David Lammy (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 17 May 2011. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Problem Gambling.


Problem Gambling

Is the hon. Gentleman not concerned that bookmakers in particular are saturating many of our high streets, particularly in London? Although a few shops might satisfy demand, a proliferation of them and an increase to nine or 10 shops on one stretch of high road can, frankly, only promote gambling and addictive behaviour among the poorest.
