I have a question for the Minister for Health, which also relates to the Minister for Justice and Equality. The gambling control Bill is on the draft legislative framework. A report commissioned by Dr. Crystal Fulton proposed a national gambling strategy, under the remit of the Department of Health, with regard to addiction. We have one of the highest rates of addiction and gambling per capitain the world. Will the Minister consider initiating this? According to the Fulton report, it is important that we see progress on a national gambling strategy.
