Ealing Council Gambling Policy
Ealing Council is reviewing its gambling policy, considering a 'no casino' resolution and government reforms to strengthen protections.
Ealing Council's Licensing Committee met in October 2025 to discuss updating the policy governing gambling activities within the borough. The review includes considering the renewal of a 'no casino' resolution, which has been in place since 2012, and reforms outlined in the government's Gambling White Paper.
These reforms aim to strengthen protections for vulnerable individuals through measures such as affordability checks and stake limits. The council's current Statement of Gambling Policy is due for renewal by June 2026, as the Gambling Act 2005 requires the policy to be updated at least every three years.
