Gambling advertising
Backbench debate (separate chamber, no votes)
A Westminster Hall debate on gambling advertising, sponsored by Labour MPs Alex Ballinger and Dr Beccy Cooper. The debate will examine the regulation and impact of gambling advertising, likely focusing on concerns about advertising practices, their effect on vulnerable groups including children, and potential harms from problem gambling.
Gambling advertising is a public health and consumer protection issue affecting millions of UK adults and children. The debate reflects growing concern about the volume and targeting of gambling promotions, which can contribute to problem gambling and financial harm, particularly among lower-income households already facing cost-of-living pressures.
