Consultation paper on the proposed abolition of the Horserace Betting Levy Board and the licensing of racecourse betting and pool betting on horse racing

In his statement to the House of Commons on 2 March 2001 the Home Secretary announced that the Government had decided to abolish the horserace betting levy and the Horserace Betting Levy Board (the Levy Board). He also said that the Government had decided that the Horserace Totalisator Board (the Tote) should be sold to a consortium of racing interests. Implementation of these decisions is intended to bring to an end the Government’s direct involvement in the administration and financing of racing, thereby enabling racing to take responsibility for its own affairs and finances.
