Vox has identified gambling addiction as a digital risk to children in its programme for the 29 November general election. The party presented the programme on 12 November.
Gambling appears only in the child-protection section of the 115-measure programme, a news report on the programme said. The measure also identifies pornography and vulnerability to certain crimes as digital risks to minors. Vox describes the measure as protection of minors online in the official summary on its website.
The programme contains no specific proposals on gambling advertising, sector taxation, the gambling regulator, gaming halls, lotteries or betting shops. Its general proposals include cuts to income tax, VAT and corporation tax. Vox proposes repealing three laws for each new law and making positive administrative silence and self-declaration the general rule, except in immigration. Neither the tax nor deregulation sections mention gambling.
