Northern Ireland government asks UK to restrict gambling advertising
The UK Government has been urged to restrict gambling advertising in Northern Ireland.
Members of the Stormont Assembly’s All Party Group on Reducing Harm Relating to Gambling have written to Lisa Nandy, Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, asking her to act to protect the public in the region.
In a letter sent at the end of Safer Gambling Week, the MLAs, including the group’s chairman Philip McGuigan, and Robbie Butler, have asked Ms Nandy to bridge a gap around gambling advertising online.
They said Northern Ireland is an outlier in the UK in not having updated gambling legislation since the advent of the internet.
