Dutch government considers further gambling advertising restrictions
The Dutch government is considering tighter gambling advertising rules, including a possible total ban, State Secretary Claudia van Bruggen said in parliamentary responses. She said Cruks cannot screen every advertising recipient or block access to unlicensed operators. Licensed online operators’ representative VNLOK has argued that advertising visibility helps direct consumers to the regulated market.
A possible advertising ban could restrict licensed operators’ visibility and alter how consumers find the regulated market.
