The UK Government's proposed introduction of a Point of Consumption Tax ("POCT") from the end of 2014Β was again referenced in the Budget supplementary papers on Wednesday 19th March, although nothing new of substance was announced. The Company continues to work with the Gibraltar Betting and Gaming Association to ensure that the industry concerns are voiced and understood by the UK Government and other stakeholders. The new announcements in the Budget regarding increased Fixed Odds Betting Terminal duties and levy collection do not impact the Company.
