What plans it has to review the impact of the new funding provided to organisations supporting people affected by gambling-related harms.

Scottish Government has funded Public Health Scotland to support the evaluation of Gambling Levy-funded treatment and prevention interventions in Scotland.Individual organisations are in the early stages of their work to reduce gambling-related harms and it will take time to build evidence of the impact of this work. Organisations have received evaluation training by Evaluation Support Scotland to support them to effectively evaluate their projects and demonstrate impact.This work will help to provide data for a fuller evaluation of the Gambling Levy work being undertaken across Scotland. Public Health Scotland will assess the timescales and work required to support a Scotland wide evaluation through further commissioning in 2027- 2029.Scottish Government continue to work closely with our delivery partners to support their work to reduce gambling-related harms across Scotland.
