Subject: IAGR Webinar: Children in Gambling: Using Regulation to Drive Parent Power


Join us for a webinar on Tuesday, 13 June at 3:00 PM (London Time)


Dear IAGR members,

Please find this reminder of the IAGR webinar which will take place on June 13, 2017 at 3:00 PM (London time) and will explore the following topic.

Children in Gambling: Using Regulation to Drive Parent Power

Parents are often told to talk to their children about the dangers of drinking, smoking and drug taking, but how often are parents encouraged to discuss gambling?
 
Tim Miller, Executive Director for Corporate Affairs and Research at the Gambling Commission (United Kingdom), will discuss the Gambling Commission’s research that shows more children gamble than become involved in any of those other activities and that highlights the role that parents play in developing young people’s attitudes towards gambling. He will explore how the Commission is moving beyond a simple regulatory response to the relationship children have with gambling and working to inform and engage parents on the issue of gambling related harm.
 
The webinar will cover:
  • Why regulators should recognise and embrace their limitations;
  • How working in partnership with parents can increase regulatory impact; and
  • The importance of being a human being as well as a regulator
