I was not aware of ongoing gambling prevalence studies. Could the Minister of State keep the House updated on this? I am willing to withdraw my amendment. If there is to be a review mechanism in the Gambling Control Bill, when it comes, it should take account of the Bill before us also. I acknowledge it is an interim measure. There is an element of licensing and so on involved in this. This needs to be kept under review, but as part of a broader review of the gambling Acts. That is for future reference.
