Question to the Cabinet Office:
To ask His Majesty's Government how many customer suicides have been reported by gambling operators in each of the past five years.
Answered by Baroness Neville-Rolfe - Shadow Minister (Treasury)
The information requested falls under the remit of the UK Statistics Authority.
A response to the noble Lord’s Parliamentary Question of 21 December is attached.

Dear Lord Bishop,
As National Statistician and Chief Executive of the UK Statistics Authority, I am responding to your Parliamentary Question asking how many customer suicides have been reported by gambling operators in each of the past five years (HL4504). The Office for National Statistics (ONS) publishes statistics on deaths registered in England and Wales. Mortality statistics are compiled from information supplied when deaths are certified and registered as part of civil registration. As gambling operators do not contribute to this process, the ONS does not hold any information on suicides that have been reported by gambling operators.
Yours sincerely,
Professor Sir Ian Diamond

Question to the Cabinet Office:
To ask Her Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the Forces in Mind Trust report The United Kingdom Armed Forces Veterans' Health and Gambling Study, published on 23 September.
Answered by Lord True - Shadow Leader of the House of Lords
This UK wide study explores levels of gambling participation and attitudes towards gambling in ex-serving personnel and adds to the important existing data on the issue of gambling in our veteran community. We will consider the study’s findings as part of our broader research programme looking at a range of policy issues which may affect veterans and their families.
We are fully committed to providing support to our veterans. Veterans can access a range of health and wellbeing services to help them with mental and physical health problems. Veterans who need support can access it via the Veterans' Gateway which provides a single point of contact to make it easier for veterans, service personnel and their families to get the right information, advice and support 24/7. The National Gambling Helpline also gives confidential information, advice and support for anyone affected by gambling problems in England, Scotland and Wales.
