Gambling Commission

The Gambling Commission is a regulatory body in the UK that oversees commercial gambling to ensure it is fair, safe, and crime-free. Established under the Gambling Act 2005, it licenses operators, monitors their activities, and protects consumers, especially vulnerable individuals. The Commission sets standards for gambling practices and conducts investigations to address illegal activities. Its main objectives are to prevent harm to people and communities, promote transparency, and ensure that gambling remains a controlled and responsible pastime.
