Germany’s gambling regulator GGL said it would continue examining online market channelling and called for an evidence-based evaluation of the national gambling framework, expected to conclude by the end of 2026. At a Berlin conference, licensing and market supervision head Sebastian Buchholz also said the regulator had identified and pursued thousands of illegal websites, while warning that player protection still required further work.
