(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These regulations prescribe, for the purposes of paragraphs 3 and 4 to Schedule 11 of the Gambling Act 2005, the maximum sums that the promoters may deduct from the proceeds of an incidental lottery in respect of the cost of prizes and costs incurred in organising the lottery. They are being made following the amendments in article 2 of the Legislative Reform (Exempt Lotteries) Order 2016 (S.I. 2016/124). Article 2 of that Order amends the exemption for incidental lotteries in Part 1 of Schedule 11 of the Gambling Act 2005, so that it is no longer limited to lotteries that are incidental to a non-commercial event.
The maximum amount that can be deducted by the promoters in respect of the cost of the prizes awarded in an incidental lottery is £500.
The maximum amount that can be deducted by the promoters in respect of the costs incurred in organising an incidental lottery is £100.
A full impact assessment has not been prepared for these Regulations as no significant impact on the private, voluntary or public sectors is foreseen. An Explanatory Memorandum has been prepared and is available alongside this instrument at www.legislation.gov.uk.
Part 1 of Schedule 11 was amended by the Legislative Reform (Exempt Lotteries) Order 2016 (S.I. 2016/124), article 2.
