Betting and Gaming Council to Serve the UK Gambling Sector from Autumn

The Betting and Gaming Council is going to launch in autumn this year. This newly-formed group will combine both the Association of British Bookmakers with the Remote Gambling Association to provide one single voice for the UK gambling sector.
The Council will be chaired by Brigid Simmonds, who is currently the CEO of the British Beer & Pub Association (BBPA). Simmonds will vacate her current role in October.
“The gambling industry is a hugely significant contributor to the leisure industry and the economy. There are, however, critical issues facing the sector and that is why I will ensure creating a safe gambling environment is the top priority,” Brigid Simmonds said.
“During her tenure, Brigid has led numerous successful campaigns to reduce beer duty and improve access for pubs to business rates relief. She is powerful in her argument and a rapier-sharp in negotiating with politicians. I know I speak on behalf of all the BBPA members when I say that the BBPA’s loss is most definitely the gambling industry’s gain,” Simon Emeny, BBPA Chairman said.
