The Lotteries Act 1710 (9 Ann c 6) was an Act of the Parliament of Great Britain. As enacted, it specified duties on exports of certain commodities, coal, and candles and regulated the state lottery. Section 57, the last to be repealed, reinforced the Suppression of Lotteries Act 1698 and specified a £100 fine for offenders, to be distributed one third each to the Crown, the parish poor, and the informant. Section 14 in Ruffhead's Edition corresponds to sections 14 and 15 in The Statutes of the Realm, and later section numbers are consequently one less in Ruffhead.
