<p>The Secretary of State has appointed Malcolm Sheehan QC to lead the independent review of the Football Index gambling product and we have published its scope and terms of reference on gov.uk. This review is entirely separate from the ongoing administration proceedings, which are looking at assets and liabilities of the company and recompense to customers. As I said in my Written Ministerial Statement of 7 June, the independent review will be conducted and report in such a way as to avoid prejudicing that process and the Gambling Commission’s ongoing regulatory investigation. The statement can be found at: <a href="https://questions-statements.parliament.uk/written-statements/detail/2021-06-07/hcws63" target="_blank">https://questions-statements.parliament.uk/written-statements/detail/2021-06-07/hcws63</a></p><p> </p>
