Gaming Act 1845
The Gaming Act 1845 (8 & 9 Vict., c. 109) was an Act of the Parliament of the United Kingdom. The Act's principal provision was to deem a wager unenforceable as a legal contract. The Act received Royal Assent on August 8, 1845. Sections 17 and 18, though amended, remained in force until 1 September 2007.
==Background==
Increasing concern as to the damaging social effects of gambling〔Miers (2002) ''p.''20〕 gave rise to a select committee of the House of Commons whose recommendations were implemented by the Act.〔House of Commons (1844)〕 The policy of the Act was to discourage betting.〔''Hill v. William Hill (Park Lane) Limited'' () AC 530, at 548 ''per'' Viscount Simon〕
However, following a 2001 report by Sir Alan Budd,〔Budd (2001)〕 in 2002, the UK government accepted that wagers should cease to be unenforceable as contracts, seeking to introduce a new liberalised regulatory regime in order to encourage the gambling industry.〔Gambling Review (2002) 4.7/ r.108〕
