National Lottery Commission has announced that the National Lottery is likely to
raise £5 billion less for good causes during its latest seven-year licence. In practice
this means good causes will receive about the same as they did in the first licence
period. Lottery operator Camelot had originally suggested they would generate £15
billion for good causes, but the figure now looks likely to be £10 billion.
