§ Mr. George HowarthI published the draft Lotteries (Frequent Draws) Bill on 7 January for comments by 30 January.
This follows my announcement on 13 November that the Government intend to introduce legislation seeking to restrict the frequency of on-line lottery draws under the Lotteries and Amusements Act 1976.
The draft Bill restricts the frequency of such draws to one a day on any particular premises in Great Britain.
