HC Deb 22 December 1981 vol 15 c356W
Mr. Philip Holland

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department when he last carried out an overall review of the need for retaining unchanged the Gaming Board for Great Britain if he also considered the advisability of varying the period of tenure of office of its chairman and members in that review; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Whitelaw

A review of the Gaming Board in October this year concluded that it should continue to exist in its present form. The chairman and hoard members hold office in accordance with the terms of their appointment, the length of which already varies.
