From www.mrs.org.uk
The Home Office, the Department of Trade and Industry and the Gaming Board of Great
Britain, all confirm that there is no specific legislation addressing free prize draws other than,
possibly, case law where legal rulings have been made in cases relating to free prize draws.
Existing gaming legislation seems only to apply where payments of some kind have to be
made in order to enter the prize draw.
Other bodies, such as the Direct Marketing Association, the Committee of Advertising
Practice Codes of Advertising and Sales Promotion and the Consumers Association all, in
varying degrees, have guidelines on the subject of free prize draws.
This guideline has drawn freely from the guidelines of the above-mentioned bodies where
individual best practice aspects are appropriate to market researchers using free prize draws
for incentives purposes. The contributions of these bodies and their guidelines are gratefully
acknowledged.
Even though, apart from the guidelines of these three bodies, there is no specific legislation
governing free prize draws, there are common law principles such as transparency, equity
and fairness that clearly must be incorporated into the administration of free prize draws by
those researchers who organise them as an incentive for survey participation, especially as
these common law principles are implicit in the MRS Code of Conduct.

why did we have to put our names on this thread to enter the draw? As a plus member from when you introduced the payment scheme, couldn't I have been entered automatically?
Of course I'm bitter and twisted at not getting picked

I assume because there will be a lot of people that
1. Can't Go
2. Don't want to Go
3. Going already
Given the short time scale then I am sure Shaun hasn't the time to keep redrawing until he comes up with someone who can go
