Open events

What is an open event?

An opportunity for smaller licensed operators to air concerns and suggestions regarding compliance with the Gambling Act 2005. At the same time we will update attendees on our developing approach to risk based regulation.

This is part of a nationwide exercise to develop our relationship with smaller licensed operators - without relying on time consuming compliance visits.

Why should I come along?

Key decision makers from the Commission will be available alongside your local compliance manager. We will cover a range of topics, selected following feedback from operators, and including fees, keeping children out, regulatory returns and effective self-exclusion.

We are also inviting suggestions on topics to be discussed via bookings. Specific sessions will be available for on-course bookmakers, arcades and off-course bookmakers.

Where and when are they being held?

Open events are expected to start around 9-45am and finish at around 3-30pm, full details will be supplied closer to the date.

How can I book my place?

If you want to come and see us while we are out on the road fill in your details on our booking form and we will contact you to confirm your place. 

Events have already been held in Bolton, Lancaster, Cardiff, Chester and Plymouth.
