Four Italian regions seek greater powers over gambling venue distances
Lombardy, Veneto, Piedmont and Liguria are seeking greater authority over gambling-related health protections, including rules on distances between venues and sensitive locations, according to the report. On 20 July, Italy’s Chamber of Deputies was due to conclude its examination of resolutions on preliminary agreements; final agreements and parliamentary approval would still be required.
Regional powers could affect where gambling venues may operate if the proposed agreements are approved.
