Very concerning stats from Northern Ireland yesterday when the 2024 figures were published showing 3% of the population are gambling problematically. A public health approach in NI and adequate treatment and prevention measures are urgent.

So important that NI gets a share of the Gambling Levy funding. People in NI contribute to the levy through their gambling spending. They must receive their fair share of the levy. There is an urgent need for large scale interventions on treatment and prevention in NI.
