Changes In Gambling Legislations
To signal its credibility as a point-of-supply market, Gibraltar has published a draft of its new Gambling Act. One of the most important changes is that the regulator from now on requires a local presence on its territory for all licensees,
The New South Wales government has proposed new betting and racing legislation, according to which enhanced odds and welcome offers will be banned. According to the proposed legislation, it is clarified that gambling advertising must not encourage people to gamble and that welcome offers for new players upon registration are forbidden.
Slovakia also has a plan to limit gambling ads. As a first step, the country’s Office for the Regulation of Gambling has launched its Action Plan for Responsible Marketing as a starting point to creating clear standards for responsible advertising in the country.
Netherland is another country strict about rules of gambling advertisement. From the end of June, the Dutch gambling authority KSA is enforcing a ban on role models (defined as a person who has achieved some form of fame – such as a model, influencer, football player, etc.) in gambling ads.
In other news, Germany is expanding the number of operators. The regulator Sachsen-Anhalt State Administration Office has confirmed approval of nine more licenses for virtual slot machines and poker across the country, in addition to the three permits already issued.
The gambling world might become richer for a new market as the parliament of Kyrgyzstan is voting to legalize casinos and iGaming for foreigners. If passed, the bill “On Gambling in the Kyrgyz Republic” will re-legalize land-based gambling and launch online casinos for the first time, though all offerings will only be available to foreign players.
Across the pond, things in the gambling world were rather calm when it comes to regulations and legislation. Besides numerous partnership deals and several fines to shady operators, there wasn’t much happening during this month.
However, there is some news about gambling in California worth mentioning. Backed by a number of commercial operators but opposed by many tribes in the state, a measure to permit online gambling in California has been confirmed for November’s ballot. By attracting around 1.1 million valid signatures the proposed law managed to make it to the ballot, which might be the first step for the state to get iGaming market.
