Survey Or Research?

Hello!
I would be very thankful if you would tell me which the right word should be in this sentence:

The British Government should never have embarked upon the lottery without first initiating research/survey into its long-term effects upon health.

Kind Regards

Hi, I would be very thankful if you would tell me which the right word should be in this sentence: The British Government should never have embarked upon the lottery without first initiating research/survey into its long-term effects upon health. Grammatically, you could say either 'research' or ' a survey'. Semantically, I think 'research' makes better sense.
