Proceeding contribution from Lord Parkinson of Whitley Bay (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 29 March 2023. It occurred during Private notice question on William Hill: Breaches of Player Protection.
William Hill: Breaches of Player Protection
I think the imposition of this record penalty shows that the Gambling Commission is taking all these issues seriously. Indeed, since the start of 2022, operators have been required to pay more than £76 million because of regulatory failures discovered by the commission. So the commission is doing its work and the Government are doing our work in reviewing an Act that is coming up to two decades old and certainly needs looking at again to make sure we have the regulation and laws in place to ensure that we have a proportionate regulation of this undertaking.
