HC Deb 23 March 1995 vol 257 c313W
Ms Hoey

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department how his Department intends to monitor the effects of deregulating sports spread betting. [14792]

Mr. Michael Forsyth

I understand that the Treasury will shortly be consulting on the terms of a draft amendment to exclude certain non-financial spread betting from the scope of the Financial Services Act 1986. Decisions on the form of any future monitoring will be taken in the light of that consultation.
