GGL opens talks on federal coordination ahead of Germany gambling review
Germany’s GGL has begun discussions with the Federal Commissioner for Drugs and Addiction on greater coordination, ahead of the 2026 review of the Interstate Gambling Treaty. The article estimates that 1.4 million adults have gambling addiction, 3.5 million are at risk and about 350,000 have self-excluded; it says offshore operators and gaps in harm data are also concerns.
The talks and treaty review could shape coordination, enforcement and rules for licensed gambling operators in Germany.
