Detail of outcome
In January 2013 the Government consulted on proposals to alter stake and prize limits for some categories of gaming machine to encourage growth while maintaining consistency with the consumer protection objectives of the Gambling Act 2005.
The objectives of the Government’s review reflect our commitment to promoting socially responsible growth, and to ensuring that robust regulation of the gambling industry continues to minimise instances of gambling related harm.
The consultation presented a set of questions identifying the key issues on which the government sought views. The Government intends to lay a draft regulation in Parliament in autumn 2013 in order that the amended stake and prize limits are implemented by early 2014, subject to Parliamentary approval.

Consultation description
In October 2011 the Government announced the reintroduction of a triennial review system to consider the level of monetary limits on stakes and prizes applied to gaming machines in Great Britain through the Gambling Act 2005. This will put in place a more coherent and systematic approach to the regulation of stakes and prizes.
The first review under the new system has been completed and the Government is now consulting on a package of measures changing the maximum stake and prize limits for a range of gaming machines situated in arcades, bingo premises, casinos and pubs and clubs in Britain. The consultation also seeks information on the impact of B2 gaming machines.
Comments are invited on the proposals as set out in the consultation document. An impact assessment is also being published analyzing the associated costs and benefits.
