HC Deb 22 November 1972 vol 846 c421W
Mr. Cormack

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he will consider the setting up of a national lottery, the proceeds of which could be devoted to preserving and enhancing the nation's heritage.

Mr. Carlisle

The whole body of law on lotteries is currently under review, and the arguments for and against a national lottery will fall to be considered in that context.
