The Government has stated previously that it would wait until it had delivered legislative changes for remote gambling before considering the recommendations of this report. Changes to remote gambling - under the Gambling (Licensing and Advertising) Act 2014 - came into force on 1st November 2014. The Government will consider all of the recommendations in the report once the legislative changes under the Gambling (Licensing and Advertising) Act 2014 have bedded in.
