Neither the Department nor the Gambling Commission (GC) hold data in the form requested. The measure most commonly used by the GC and DCMS is Gross Gambling Yield, which is the amount retained by licensed betting operators in Great Britain, after the payment of winnings, but before the deduction of the costs of the operation (excluding pool betting); this statistic gives a better indication of gaming behaviours and betting shop patterns. The last complete figures available for betting shops in Great Britain show that the Gross Gambling Yield equalled £2,729 million in 2008-09, £2,647 million in 2009-10, £2,794 million in 2010-11 and £2,846 million in 2011-12. The full year figures for 2012-13 will be published in December 2013. However, due to the way the data are collated, we are not able to provide statistics broken down by area.
