GAMBLING PREVALENCE STUDY OUT TODAY

Study was tasked to research everything from scratchcards to casino action


The UK Gambling Commission's Gambling Prevalence study is due for publication today (Wednesday September 19) after weeks of speculation and leaks about its content and impact on the British gambling industry.

In terms of the Commission's brief, the study has examined participation in 17 types of land and online gambling from scratchcards to casinos.

The study has apparently questioned 9 003 people between September 2006 and March 2007 on the popularity of different types of gambling, attitudes to gambling and the prevalence of problem gambling. It follows a similar study in 1999 - then 7 680 people were asked about 10 different types of gambling.

The Gambling Commission, which carried out the survey, has clarified that the study was not meant to measure the impact of regional "super" casinos - this is to be carried out in separate research to be commissioned by the government.

In a PM's Question Time in the UK Parliament shortly after taking over as the British prime minister, Gordon Brown said: "In September we will have a report that will look at gambling in our country - the incidence and prevalence of it and the social effects of it."
