On 26 March 2018 the UK Gambling Commission published its Review of Online Gambling ("Review") and announced that it would shortly be issuing a number of consultations in the sector. Heston Aniteye explains the areas of consideration and the potential implications.
The Review is part of the Commission’s drive to raise standards across all gambling sectors, as outlined in its Corporate Business Plan for 2017/2018. The Commission cited the fact that progress to minimise harm across the online gambling industry had been slower than it had expected and outlined four key policy recommendations to enhance the regulatory framework for online gambling.
