Gambling levy could raise £100m for NHS treatment
By Philippa RoxbyHealth reporter
A levy on gambling companies that would bring in £100m a year to fund NHS treatment is being considered by the UK government.
It wants all operators " to pay their fair share" instead of the current voluntary scheme.
The Money will be invested In Treatment and support for people harmed by gambling in England, Scotland and Wales, ministers say.

The idea of a statutory levy on operators was earlier this year.

" Gambling companies should pay their fair share towards the costs of treatment services but we want to hear from as many people as possible about how the new statutory levy should work. "
NHS mental-health director Claire Murdoch said it was only right " that this billion-pound industry steps up to support people suffering from gambling addiction".
'Sliding scale'The Betting and Gaming Council said its members had already pledged £100m over Four Years to fund research, education and treatment services, through the voluntary levy scheme.
The new levy should apply to all operators, including the National Lottery , on a sliding scale, to protect High Street betting shops that struggled during the pandemic, it added.
Meanwhile,
The Draft health guidance is currently open for consultation.
