Overview
Gambling Connection: West Devon Borough Council holds an active UKGC operator licence, first issued on 11 May 2018, which places this Devon borough council formally within the regulated UK gambling sector.
West Devon Borough Council is a public sector body classified as an 'other' entity type, consistent with its status as a local government authority rather than a private or public limited company. UKGC records show the council first received its gambling licence on 11 May 2018, giving it nearly eight years of continuous licensed status.
Local authorities hold UKGC licences to cover gambling-related activities on council-managed premises, including licensed entertainment venues, arcade-style gaming machines, or local lottery arrangements. West Devon Borough Council's presence in the register reflects that regulatory requirement rather than any involvement in commercial gambling. It isn't a gambling business in the conventional sense.
