Belgian Gaming Commission backs gambling bill but flags implementation concerns
Belgium’s Gaming Commission issued advice last week supporting a proposed gambling-law reform while raising concerns about several measures. It said the proposed minimum of ten full-time staff in its control unit would be only a first step, and questioned the effectiveness or feasibility of limits on café gaming machines, extending the EPIS self-exclusion register to cafés and restricting credit-card-linked payment services.
The commission’s reservations could influence parliamentary decisions on staffing, café machines, self-exclusion and payment rules.
