UK Gambling Commission publishes latest business plan
The UK Gambling Commission has unveiled its business plan for 2017-18, while inviting industry members to weigh in on the regulator’s longer-term strategy.
The business plan focuses on five priority areas, these being:
• To empower and protect consumers
• To raise standards across all gambling sectors
• To build partnerships and understanding
• To ensure fair play on the National Lottery
• To improve regulation
Consumers, the industry and public bodies have been invited to contribute their views to help in shaping the GC’s “three-year corporate strategy”, with 5 May the closing date for submissions.
William Moyes, Chair of the Gambling Commission, sought to encourage all with an interest in the work of GC to share their views.
He said: “By no means are we starting from scratch with our long term strategy, but we are calling on all our stakeholders to share their views about how we and our partners can have the greatest impact for consumers – who are at the heart of everything we do at the Commission.
“These highly valued contributions will help us to continue to improve how we deliver our core responsibilities. There is also a need to build and maintain consumer trust against the back drop of changing consumer behaviour.
“To do this, we wish to encourage the industry to be increasingly innovative to continue to keep gambling safe, fair and crime free.’’
