Ladbrokes Coral Review a Conflict of Interest, Say MPs

MPs have criticised a Gambling Commission decision to let the owner of Ladbrokes and Coral lead a review of online betting for VIP customers.

Carolyn Harris, chair of the All Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) for Gambling Related Harm, called it "a conflict of interest and woefully naive".

Gamblers with VIP status get some free bets and special offers as rewards for betting high stakes.

Betting giant GVC has been asked to review how VIP schemes operate.

Conservative MP Sir Iain Duncan Smith, who also sits on the APPG for Gambling Related Harm, said it was a "bizarre" decision by the Gambling Commission (GC).
