Supplementary notes
Respondents were asked: "The last time you bought National Lottery tickets (e.g. Lotto and EuroMillions) or scratchcards, WHERE did you buy them?". * The source adds the following information: "It should be noted that the survey approach was altered in 2017 to include Scotland as part of the sample and incorporate 16 year olds into the reporting, while the decision has also been taken to exclude ‘not stated’ responses from the 2017 gambling incidence data. Therefore, the 2017 figures are not directly comparable with previous years of the study that were based on 11-15 year olds in England and Wales. However, when the 2017 figures are filtered on 11-15 year olds in England and Wales, including not stated responses as in previous years, this also gives an overall past week gambling participation rate of 12%."
