Original consultation

Summary

We want your views on changes to B3 gaming machine regulations.

This consultation ran from
2 November 2010 to 11:45pm on 25 January 2011

Consultation description

Since 2007 a range of factors, including difficult trading conditions arising from the economic downturn have put the amusement and bingo industries in Britain under increasing pressure. We are persuaded that the situation facing these industries is sufficiently grave to justify considering whether a small increase in the maximum stake for category B3 gaming machines, that is machines with a maximum stake limit of £1 and a maximum prize limit of £500, and a recalibration of B3 gaming machine entitlements for adult gaming centres (AGCs) and bingo clubs might be appropriate.

You can view responses to the consultation on the Department for Culture, Media and Sport’s archived website.
