To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, if his Department has made an assessment of the potential benefits of reducing pools duty to 10 per cent to the industry and local economy in the North West.

No assessment has been made. Cutting Pool Betting Duty to 10% is unlikely to increase usage of the football pools which has been in long term decline due to the popularity of other gambling products.
