Again, in context though, Charlotte, it has to be pointed out that this is a House of Lords committee.
Lee MottersheadPANELIST
4:12
It has no power.
Lee MottersheadPANELIST
4:14
All it is doing here is adding to the general debate and the general momentum that is anti-gambling within the British political class, if you like, or certainly within significant elements of the British political class.
Lee MottersheadPANELIST
6:07
that the Prime Minister, Andy Burnham, has made more than one reference since he came to power that is clearly anti-gambling.

Eve McGradyHOST
23:28
If,
James DaleyHOST
23:30
you know, there is a problem by creating some minimum standards and that starts to, you know, like one of the things I wrote last week when I listened to the Lords Committee was, you know, and I've said before, I think on the podcast, we need to stop talking about wind speeds when it comes to storm definitions because, you know, the expectation with consumers is that if my house is damaged by weather, the insurer will pay for it but you know only here is the big things right and and i i maybe we need to get to you know like what they have in their private health insurance market where you have like cancer stroke heart attack cover you know the big ones um you know i want flood subsidence um storm cover you know and maybe burglary um and fire obviously but you know All of the sort of nice-to-haves that sit in there, the garden items and property away from the home or frozen food damage, get rid of all that.

But together with the PMMC, they were all giving money as agents to buy gold.
Sami JemfiGUEST
62:25
Now... um when the pmmc sometime in 2022 visited parliament on the invitation of the parliamentary select committee or mice then um an issue came up as to what fee the pmmc was getting for a service as buying agent and at that and at the time pmmc was not getting any service fee all that pmmc was getting was the assay fee and i'll come and explain the assay fee so So it was recommended there strongly that Bank of Ghana negotiates with PMMC and pays PMMC for its services.
Sami JemfiGUEST
63:02
Because the services PMMC was delivering at that time and in 2025 are not free.

Katie BradfordGUEST
3:22
I think in situations like this where you actually need someone to read through the legislation possibly, properly, look at the possible harm it causes, have a Select Committee debate it, that needs a really serious rethink heading into next term.

Heather du Plessis-AllanHOST
3:53
Mm.
Maurice WilliamsonGUEST
3:54
I, I th- I actually think Parliament should sit for more days than it sits, uh, in a year to get through some of the work.
Maurice WilliamsonGUEST
3:59
But look, think of the number of pieces of legislation that do go to a Select Committee and then they get changed dramatically 'cause there's things wrong with them.
Maurice WilliamsonGUEST
4:06
