EGBA urges EU scrutiny of national gambling rules under TRIS
The European Betting & Gaming Association reiterated that EU member states should notify the European Commission of draft gambling rules through the TRIS procedure. It cited a recent Court of Justice of the European Union ruling that provisions in a Lithuanian gambling law were unenforceable after the country failed to notify the Commission, and called for closer scrutiny of notifications.
The ruling may affect whether gambling operators can be bound by national rules introduced without EU notification.
