Dutch state secretary says gambling law needs stronger player protection
Dutch state secretary Van Bruggen said the evaluation of the Remote Gambling Act found that it has not produced a sufficiently responsible and effectively supervised gambling offer. She said legalisation had made the offer more reliable and easier to monitor, but existing safeguards against excessive play were inadequate. The government is examining whether further rules are needed for behavioural techniques used by online operators.
Potential changes could affect online operators’ player-protection measures and use of behavioural techniques.
