Sinn Féin calls for industry-funded problem gambling fund 

Party wants independent regulator to help minimise problem gambling

Sinn Féin wants to see the introduction of a requirement for age verification to precede gambling activity online.

Sinn Féin wants the establishment of a problem gambling fund financed by a mandatory levy or license fee on the industry.

The call was made as the party's spokesperson on Addiction, Recovery and Wellbeing Thomas Gould launched the party's gambling policy.
