HC Deb 17 April 2002 vol 383 cc951-2W
Miss McIntosh

To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport what discussions she had with Camelot on the new National Lottery logo; and if she will make a statement. [49929]

Mr. Caborn

The National Lottery logo is owned by the National Lottery Commission. There is no new logo, although Camelot have been discussing with the commission minor modifications to the current design. Camelot have recently introduced a new corporate logo; that is wholly a matter for them. The Department has not been involved in either matter.
