MPs are calling for urgent government action to help community pubs by increasing the stake and prizes for AWP machines.
As part of the 2005 Gambling Act, the Gaming Board recommended the stake and maximum prize for £25 jackpot fruit machines was increased to 50p and £35 respectively.
But the government has failed to act on the recommendations.
According to the British Beer & Pub Association (BBPA), the pub industry has lost £200m per year in income generated from gaming machines since 2002.
Now MP John Grogan has tabled an Early Day Motion calling for the government to implement the increases.
