Dear Gambling Commission,

Under the Freedom of Information Act please provide a list of all currently active UK National Lottery retailers (terminal locations) in Excel format. If delivered as a comma-separated file (CSV), please use quotation marks around each data field to ensure proper parsing of the data.

Information about each retailer should include the following data. If a data item (column) is marked "optional", then please include the data item if it is available, but if that data item is not available please continue with the request without that specific data item. If a data item is partially available (available only for a subset of records), then please include the information on those records it is available and leave blank for the records it is not available.

• Business name
• Full street address (including any secondary location information such as suite number)
• County / District name
• City
• Postal code
• Retailer type - e.g., grocery store, filling station, stationary store, etc. (if possible)

If possible, the list should be more recent than the one provided in April 2022, at the following link - https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/l...

Please note that there is precedent for releasing lottery retailer location data in March 2015 under the ICO decision notice FS50553684, available on the following link - https://ico.org.uk/media/action-weve-tak...

Yours faithfully,

Paul
