Gambling: Excise Duties
The question
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, whether an assessment has been made of the potential impact of betting duty harmonisation on the level of advertising of online gaming products.
Answered by James Murray
The Government is consulting on proposals to simplify the current gambling tax system by merging the three current taxes that cover remote (including online) gambling into one. The Government is committed to engaging with all stakeholders, as part of the consultation process.
We encourage all stakeholders to engage with the consultation to help ensure that all views are properly considered.
