Conclusion
It is difficult to understand why the National Lottery has been so hostile towards society lotteries while largely ignoring prize draws. It merits further investigation as to whether prize draws, with such large revenues and little regulation, are competing for ticket sales with the National Lottery and the wider lottery sector, potentially significantly reducing the money returned to good causes as a result.
