Before Deputy Gould takes the floor, I wish to note that this is an area in which he has done a lot of work. He had a Private Members' Bill on it. We all know that credit card gambling causes serious harm. All the groups we met that are concerned about gambling highlighted this issue. It allows people to run up serious debts and can lead to major gambling harm. We know 55,000 people in the State are seriously affected with a gambling difficulty.
