Ms Carol Boate:

I am afraid I do not have any of the answers to any of those questions, I would not have that information. I only regulate the one company to provide the actual national lottery. I do not have any of that information on what other companies are doing. I know that the Department is actively looking at it and consulting the Attorney General, the national lottery operator and, I believe, the companies to which the Deputy refers to answer the questions he has posed. It is beyond my remit and my powers of information.
