I thank the Minister of State and welcome the fact he has re-examined section 157. It was the subject of much debate last week. Could the Minister of State detail the restrictions he introduced tonight? Will it be up to the regulator now to announce the restrictions or will they be part of the Bill? He has given us a definition but for me, it does not go far enough. I called for a ban on inducements the last time and was supported by a number of colleagues. While I welcome that the Minister of State has re-examined section 157, what exactly does that mean regarding additional restrictions as regards inducements? Will it be up to the regulator to decide whether a particular inducement is suitable or whether a particular inducement can be implemented by a gambling company?
