Incumbent National Lottery supplier Camelot has informed the UK Gambling Commission that it has withdrawn its appeal against the Commission’s decision not to award it a license.
IGT will continue with its appeal

Earlier this year, the UKGC announced that it had awarded the final National Lottery license to to Allwyn Entertainment UK. Both Camelot and another bidder IGT appealed the decision and a temporary suspension of Allwyn’s licnese came into immediate effect. That suspension was then lifted by the High Court. Camelot and IGT then went to the Court of Appeal and were granted permission to appeal the High Court’s decision.
