Lord McIntosh appointed as GamCare President
6 June 2005
GamCare Chairman Anthony Jennens said,
"GamCare has for too long been without a President, so it is with great pleasure that I can now confirm that Lord McIntosh has agreed to undertake the role.
Lord McIntosh of Haringey, who retired from government at the last election, has spent the last two years steering the Gambling Bill through Parliament. With 40 years in the field of research it is hoped his vast experience will aid more investigation into problem gambling issues.
Lord McIntosh recognises there is scope for greater collaboration with international organisations into research on problem gambling, a role he is particularly suited to.
GamCare is extremely fortunate to have a new President who is politically ‘plugged in,’ and who has been so interested and a supportive of GamCare and its aims. We are proud and happy to welcome our new President."
