Unified across England, Wales and Scotland, regulation of the industry is strict with most businesses requiring an operating licence, personal licence and premises licence in order to trade legally.
To make matters more complicated, control over this regulation is divided between the Gambling Commission and the local authority in the area where premises are located.
