UK Government Officials to Meet with FOBT Manufacturers

UK companies responsible for developing the Fixed Odds Betting Terminals around UK betting shops are to meet with British government officials regarding punitive tax rates according to This Is Money. FOBTs have attracted plenty of negative attention due to the thought they are addictive and they're popping up more and more in betting shops across the country. SG Gaming's managing director Phil Horne said to This Is Money: "We were concerned that a lot of decisions were taken without examining the data, so we're pleased the government is happy to talk through some of the issues with us."
