Brazil Senate committee discusses bills to restrict gambling advertising
Brazil’s Senate Sports Commission discussed two bills on 9 April that would further restrict gambling advertising. PL 2,985/2023 proposes a ban across all channels, while PL 3,405/2023 would bar advertising involving athletes, celebrities, sports teams and influencers; senator Carlos Portinho criticised the effectiveness of current rules.
The proposals could change the advertising limits that licensed betting operators and their marketing partners must follow in Brazil.
