As a result of this consultation, the Gambling Commission published Licence conditions and codes of practice supplement 5: revision to condition 11 concerning lotteries. This supplement has now been included in Licence conditions and codes of practice - consolidated December 2011

This consultation followed a Department for Culture, Media and Sport consultation on whether the limit on proceeds from society lotteries should be increased, and whether the proposed doubling of the limit from £2 million to £4 million is appropriate and adequate.

Our consultation asked whether, subject to its approval by Parliament, we should increase the society lottery proceeds limit to that set in the consequent Order.  It then asked about another change to the licence condition, which would increase all the prize limits stated to match the maximum prize limit set by Parliament for a single draw.
