It estimates that between 1 million and 1.5 million adults in Great Britain gamble at levels described as problem gambling.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<p><strong>Good to Know<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The committee wants a comprehensive UK gambling advertising ban.<\/li>\n<li>Gambling companies spend more than \u00a31 billion a year on advertising, according to the report.<\/li>\n<li>Remote Gaming Duty already stands at 40%, while the new 25% remote betting tax starts in April 2027.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr>\n<h2><strong>Lords Put Advertising At Centre Of Gambling Harm Policy<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The report revisits recommendations first made in 2020 and argues that gambling advertising rules have failed to keep pace with digital marketing, social media and content designed to look less like traditional advertising.<\/p>\n<p>Before the Gambling Act 2005 liberalised the market, television and radio gambling ads were largely limited to bingo, football pools, the National Lottery and other permitted lotteries. UK gambling advertising spending now exceeds \u00a31 billion a year, according to the committee.<\/p>\n<p>Lord Foster of Bath said:<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cA ban on most gambling advertising would reduce gambling and therefore reduce problem gambling and the serious harm it causes. We are clear that this would shrink, rather than grow, the gambling sector and that this would make a positive difference to millions of people across the country.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>He also cited research from the Sheffield Centre for Health and Related Research estimating that a 10% fall in gambling spending could increase gross value added by \u00a31.25 billion and create more than 22,000 jobs.<\/p>\n<p>The committee also challenged warnings that tighter rules for licensed operators would automatically send players toward unlicensed gambling sites. It said stronger action against the unregulated market remains necessary but should not prevent further restrictions on licensed advertising.<\/p>\n<p>A full ban could affect betting partnerships across football, darts, snooker, rugby league and boxing. Existing deals such as the EFL partnership with Sky Bet would face closer attention if the government adopts a wide restriction.<\/p>\n<p>The tax environment has also changed. Remote Gaming Duty increased from 21% to 40% on April 1, 2026. A separate 25% rate for remote betting under General Betting Duty begins on April 1, 2027, with remote UK horse racing bets remaining at 15%.<\/p>\n<p>The Lords report also notes that several overseas markets have adopted tighter gambling advertising rules while Great Britain retains a wider range of permitted advertising. The committee described Britain as an international outlier on that basis.<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/igaming.org\/casino-news\/house-of-lords-calls-for-uk-gambling-advertising-ban\/\">House Of Lords Calls For UK Gambling Advertising Ban<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/igaming.org\/\">iGaming.org<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A House of Lords committee has called for a comprehensive ban on gambling advertising in Great Britain, arguing that tighter controls would reduce gambling harm and should form part of a wider public health policy.
