We are consulting on a revised Statement of Principles to set out how the council will carry out duties required under the Gambling Act (2005).

It is a legal requirement for councils to have a statement of principles that sets out how the council will carry out the duties required under the Gambling Act (2005).

The council is required, by law, to review and publish its revised Statement every 3 years. It was last updated in 2018.

This letter summarises the key changes and next steps: download letter (PDF, 216KB)
