Responsible Gambling Solutions Ltd. (RGS) is a consultancy company specialising in social responsibility and related public policy issues.

Operating primarily in the United Kingdom RGS provides advice to Government, and regulators of gambling activities, and the gambling industry. The company has advised the Department for Culture, Media & Sport; the UK Parliamentary Committee that scrutinised the gambling bill; the Gambling Commission; the National Lottery Commission; and the Responsibility in Gambling Trust.

RGS has advised Manchester City Council throughout the preparation of its bid for the regional casino licence. Following Manchester's success in winning this competition the company has been retained by them to assist in the development of their Responsible Gambling Unit and to ensure the highest standards of social responsibility are achieved.

As many issues are common throughout the world and remote gambling applications do not stop at national boundaries, RGS is also able to offer its expertise to any gambling operator wishing to develop its policy and practice of responsible gambling.
