Recommendation 8

We support the White Paper’s proposals to make online gambling products safer by design. Improving understanding of what affects products’ risk of harm should be a priority, and Government should keep its position on a safety testing regime under review in light of further research. In the short term, as part of its work on safer gambling messaging, we recommend that the Government consider what point-of-sale information should be provided to customers about the risk of specific products and their design features.
