The members are UK Parliament are pushing to increase the limit of charity lottery sales in the country. The move to raise the same failed last year. But the move got a new life this year. A poll revealed that at least 55% of MPs support the UK charity lottery sales limit to rise to €116 million.
According to MP David Amess, the reform is needed to raise money for good causes. “Charity lotteries do great work in raising money for good causes and charities across the country,” he said. “With the stroke of a pen, culture secretary Jeremy Wright and charity minister Mims Davies have an opportunity to dramatically increase the amount of funding available to the charity sector. I and my colleagues urge them to take it.”
MP Miles Briggs also said it would have “an immediate and very positive impact on the level of funding available to charities.” He added that it would “ensure that the charity lottery model for funding charities is sustainable for the years ahead.”
“The government has an opportunity to make a decision that will be of obvious benefit to charities and good causes,” he assured.
