Petition Require betting shops to create members-only areas for FOBTs (slot machines)

The Government should require betting shops and other gambling establishments that operate Fixed-Odds Betting Terminals (FOBTs) to create membership schemes, and to position their FOBTs in a 'members-only’ area.

More details

After this 'membership' legislation has been passed, non-members, ex-members, and under-18s, wouldn’t be able to gain access to the 'members-only’ area or room. To do this people would simply be asked to provide certain personal information to be allowed entry. An opportune moment to remind 'members' to set limits and take breaks.
