Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, what recent discussions she has had on proposals to reduce the maximum bet per spin for fixed odds betting terminals to £2.

I announced a review of gaming machines and social responsibility measures on 24 October. This will include a close look at Fixed Odds Betting Terminals. This is the correct mechanism to look again at this issue.

I have regular meetings with all interested parties on this and other related matters.
