Eduardo Leite submits bill to establish Rio Grande do Sul lottery
Rio Grande do Sul governor Eduardo Leite submitted a bill to the state legislature to establish a state lottery. The proposal allows number-draw and instant lottery products in physical and digital formats, but excludes fixed-odds betting; the government hopes to publish an operating tender before the end of April if lawmakers approve it.
The proposal could create a state lottery tender for private operators, while excluding fixed-odds betting from authorised products.
