GC excludes affordability cap from remote interaction priorities 25th May 2021 | By Daniel O'Boyle The GB Gambling Commission has revealed its points of action from last year’s remote customer interaction consultation do not include a mandatory soft affordability cap. Instead, the Gambling Commission is to focus on developing measures to prevent customers losing significant sums gambling, and preventing those that are particularly financially vulnerable from being harmed by the industry. The consultation opened in November 2020 and was extended in December due to a high volume of responses. The Commission received around 13,000 submissions in total, of which roughly 1,000 were full consultation responses and 12,000 were answers to a short survey.
