Barbalha establishes municipal lottery service under 2024 law
Barbalha, in Brazil’s Ceará state, enacted a law in 2024 establishing a municipal lottery service, the report said. The law permits several lottery formats, including fixed-odds betting, and allocates proceeds to anti-poverty and social services and public security; the concession process has not begun. Barbalha’s planning department will select the concessionaire.
The municipality’s concession process could create a local route to operate lottery and fixed-odds betting services.
