Charity Commission and Gambling Commission: Finance
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, what the annual budget was for the (a) Charity Commission and (b) Gambling Commission in each year since 2005.
Answered by Stephanie Peacock
Information on the Charity Commission and Gambling Commission’s annual net expenditure is included in each public body’s annual report and accounts. These are published annually on GOV.UK.
As a non-governmental department, the Charity Commission receives its funding directly from the Treasury. The Gambling Commission is primarily funded by licence fees paid by gambling operators - fee levels are set by DCMS and approved by Parliament.
The total annual net expenditure for each public body since 2005 is detailed in the following table:
