We congratulate @lisanandy on continuing as @DCMS Secretary of State but hope this will provide impetus to urgently address the deeply flawed and unfair decision around charity lottery limits - which Ministers' acknowledge would deliver millions extra for British charities.
Delighted to have been asked by the Prime Minister to continue to serve as the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport @DCMS.

Awful from @DCMS today. A failure to put the needs of the most vulnerable first and actively blocking the wishes of many of Britain's biggest charities. People’s Postcode Lottery can still grow, but awards will now be dictated by legislation, not charitable need 👎.
Despite clear evidence from their own report, the Government has refused to lift the cap on charity lotteries, a change that could unlock millions in extra funding for good causes. You can read more about it here:

Fantastic coverage on @BelfastLive highlighting how a change to lottery legislation could unlock millions of pounds for the charity sector in Northern Ireland.

Current laws mean that charities in Northern Ireland are missing out on millions of funding from the likes of the People's Postcode Lottery

Many thanks to @JoePJRobertson for his & @Conservatives strong support for @wendychambLD's Private Members Bill seeking to remove the charity lottery sales limits and thus boost funding to our supported charities.
The Government should look at how it can better support charities, especially considering it is taking an estimated £1.4bn from them with their NICs increase. The aims behind @wendychambLD's PMB are sound. @StuartAndrew @PostcodeLottery @NCVO @CharityTimes @ThirdSector

Many thanks to @wendychambLD for championing removing the red tape which hinders charity lottery fundraising!.
During the Second Reading of my Private Member's Bill today, I also highlighted the limits the current charity lottery ticket sales cap places on charities such as the People's Postcode Lottery.
