Gambling Commission challenges claims made to parliamentary health committee
The Gambling Commission’s executive director Tim Miller challenged evidence presented at a parliamentary health committee session on gambling harm in Great Britain. He said researchers had not provided sources for three claims and cited the commission’s 2024 report, which found 27% of 11–17-year-olds had gambled in the previous 12 months.
The Commission’s response puts its youth gambling data against claims discussed by the committee.
