Bacta說，英國政府可能會故意推遲執行2023年賭博的白皮書。

它確定了負面影響，這些影響正在放緩或停止在白皮書建議中可能積極的任何事物的改革。

The British Amusement Arcade Association (Bacta) has expressed its concern over what it describes as a "sombre" assessment of the apparent delays in implementing the recommendations of the 2023 white paper on gambling.

英國娛樂街機協會（BACTA）對其所描述的“陰沉”評估表示關注，對實施2023年白皮書關於賭博的建議的明顯延遲。

The association views the inactivity as deliberate and a result of negative influences that are slowing or stopping anything positive in the white paper proposals.

該協會認為不活動是故意的，是負面影響的結果，這些影響會減慢或阻止白皮書提案中任何積極的影響。

In response, Bacta has formed a "rapid response unit" to combat the opposition, which is being led by vice-president Joseph Cullis.

作為回應，巴塔（Bacta）形成了一個“快速響應單位”來對抗反對派，該反對派由副總統約瑟夫·庫利斯（Joseph Cullis）領導。

The unit draws on the expertise and experience of a team of Bacta National Council members comprising Elizabeth Speed (Novomatic UK), Tony Boulton (Merkur Group UK), Jeremy Godden (Godden Gaming), Peter Davies (Inspired Entertainment) and former Bacta president Nick Harding, who over a five-year period grew Praesepe from a cash shell to a national brand operating 180 gaming venues and with a workforce of 1,800.

The dedicated team is being supported by current Bacta president John Bollom, executive director (government relations) George McGregor and public affairs advisor Dane Bainbridge.

現任BACTA總裁John Bollom（政府關係）喬治·麥格雷戈（George McGregor）和公共事務顧問丹恩·貝恩布里奇（Dane Bainbridge）的敬業團隊得到了敬業的團隊。

Bacta has become increasingly alarmed at a propaganda campaign that is targeting Britain’s high street AGCs and which is designed to tarnish the reputation of the industry in the eyes of policy makers and politicians operating at both national and local levels.

Bacta在針對英國高街AGC的宣傳運動中變得越來越震驚，旨在在政策制定者和在國家和地方一級運作的政治家和政治家看來，損害該行業的聲譽。

Explaining how the unit will operate and the egregious challenges the industry faces, Joseph Cullis said: “Make no mistake, this is much more than simply a couple of inflammatory and salacious newspaper reports. We are facing a highly motivated and well-funded campaign where the ultimate end game is to drive responsible gambling entertainment businesses, employing local people and sustaining supply chains of local business, off the high street.

約瑟夫·庫利斯（Joseph Cullis）解釋了該單位將如何運作以及行業面臨的艱鉅挑戰，“毫無疑問，這不僅僅是幾張炎症性和卑鄙的報紙報導。我們面臨著一場高度積極進取的活動，最終的最終遊戲是在其中，可以促進當地人和眾多街道，供應當地人，並在當地的商業界和維持眾多街道，並擁有高級街道，並擁有高級街道，並擁有高等街道。

“The media coverage, much of which is based on half-truths and misinformation, is feeding the briefing of politicians and policy makers which we believe may explain the otherwise unfathomable delay in the implementation of the white paper reforms. We have allocated additional resource to increase and enhance our lobbying activities and we are commissioning additional independent economic impact research. I can assure Bacta members that we will be bringing the full influence of the trade association to take on the anti-gambling coalition and debunk its spurious accusations and exploitation of statistics.”

“媒體報導的大部分是基於半真相和錯誤信息，正在為政治家和政策制定者的介紹提供簡報，我們相信我們可以解釋這些媒體的實施可能會延遲白皮書改革的實施。我們已經分配了其他資源來增加和增強我們的遊說活動，並提高我們的交易，我們可以將額外的經濟影響付諸實踐。反派對聯盟和揭穿其虛假指控和對統計的開發。”
