On enforcement, Jenny Williams of the Gambling Commission, when she gave evidence to the Select Committee, pointed out the discrepancy between the number of suspicious activities reported by all the operators licensed by the commission and of those licensed overseas—in fact, since 2007 only 10 reported from 80% of the market. She said that it was improbable that there were so few incidents. If those licensing regimes are working so well, why are there so few reports of suspicious activities from four fifths of the market?
