Ireland establishes Gambling Regulatory Authority and appoints seven members
Ireland’s Minister for Justice, Jim O’Callaghan, established the Gambling Regulatory Authority of Ireland and approved seven members, with Paul Quinn as chair. The authority will begin exercising its functions and legislative powers in phases, prioritising licensing work and aiming to invite applications for some licence types within the coming year.
The phased licensing programme will determine when gambling operators can apply under Ireland’s new regulatory framework.
