The planned Gambling Commission affordability checks will be going ahead.

But the value thresholds seem reasonable, and they've been clear it's "net deposits" rather than the previously ambiguous "losses", which makes things much clearer for all.

I think (hope) this is what the new structure is designed to prevent.

Right now, bookies are running scared and operating their own thresholds and processes because the current rules are not clear.
