European Commission leaves gambling advertising rules to member states
The European Commission does not plan to propose a dedicated law banning gambling advertising, Commissioner Michael McGrath said in a written response dated 11 July. He said the Commission is preparing digital fairness legislation that would address, among other issues, addictive digital-service design and video-game loot boxes.
Operators and regulators should expect gambling advertising rules to remain a matter for individual EU member states under the stated position.
