Bacta undertakes mapping exercise to begin engagement process with new MPs

Bacta, the trade body representing the UK low-stake gaming and amusement sectors, has begun the process of engaging with the 335 new MPs which have been elected to the House of Parliament following the July 4th General Election.
In an initiative which began as soon as the outcome of the Election was confirmed Bacta is systematically mapping members venues against their constituency MPs. The deep-dive into the political terrain of the UK will also include a sectoral perspective identifying those MPs who have been appointed to the relevant Select Committees.
Expanding on the initiative Bacta Executive Director George McGregor stated: “This is the first occasion certainly in the two decades that I have worked with Bacta that we have systematically mapped MPs with Members. We have used the General Election outcome to create a Geo Political Footprint for the industry.â€
Explaining how the mapping exercise will be deployed George McGregor said: “It will be the Central Nervous System guiding our political engagement and is a much more efficient way of putting Bacta members in front of their constituency MPs in order to present the case for the industry in particular the importance of getting the reforms recommended in the White Paper over the line.â€
Reflecting on the new Labour Government he confirmed. “Our position is one of partnership and collaboration. We believe that the industry is ideally placed to support the Government’s economic growth objectives both on the high street and at the coast as part of a broader tourism strategy. We are preparing for a relentless 12-months with political engagement at the very top of Bacta’s agenda.â€
