£2 stake limit and checks on major losses in bet crackdown

The proposed crackdowns were announced in a longawaited White Paper on gambling, published yesterday.

It marks the biggest shakeup of regulation in the sector for nearly 20 years.

The Government says online slot machines are a particularly high-risk product.

Its review proposes a consultation on stake limits of between £2 and £15 per spin.

But it also suggests lower limits of £2 or £4 a spin for younger gamblers aged 18 to 24, who it says "may be particularly vulnerable".
