I've lost £30k on betting reform is needed

A FORMER gambling addict has said he believes recently announced reforms to tackle gambling are a 'step in the right direction.

The Government's proposals include new stake limits for online slot games, player protection checks and a statutory gambling operator levy, which would help fund treatment services and research into addiction.

The plans also include further powers by the Gambling Commission to tackle black market operators, new rules for bonus offers and free bets to ensure they don't harm vulnerable people and the closing of a number of loopholes to ensure under 18s cannot online gamble through slot machines.
