Carolyn Harris, Chair of the All Party Parliamentary Group on Gambling Related Harms and the Labour Party MP for Swansea East is the latest high profile thought leader to confirm their participation in February’s ICE VOX programme (5th – 8th February, ExCeL London).
Ms Harris, one of Parliament’s most influential contributors to the safer gambling debate will be providing her perspective on the UK Government’s White Paper on gambling reform as part of the ICE VOX World Regulatory Briefing (WrB) taking place on Tuesday 6th February, the opening day of the ICE exhibition.

The White Paper on gambling reform was introduced to the House of Commons on 28th April and since then the gambling industry has been involved in a detailed consultation process ahead of proposals being enacted by the government.
“With the UK in a general election year and many political analysts predicting a change in government it’s vital that the industry can hear the views of a leading parliamentarian who previously served as Private Secretary to the leader of the Labour Party Sir Keir Starmer.
