Belo Horizonte bans betting adverts on municipal property and near youth facilities
Belo Horizonte mayor Álvaro Damião signed a decree prohibiting fixed-odds betting advertising on municipal property, urban furniture and public-sector events in the Brazilian city. The restriction also covers advertising within 100 metres of schools, museums and public facilities serving young people; municipal bodies have 15 working days to review existing arrangements and stop covered adverts.
Operators and municipal partners must account for the new local advertising restrictions and the deadline to end covered placements.
