Irish Labour leader backs proposal to ban gambling advertising
Irish Labour Party leader Ivana Bacik has backed a proposal to ban all gambling advertisements in the Republic of Ireland. She said the party supports a ban, while current legislation bars broadcast gambling advertising between 5.30am and 9.00pm; the Gambling Regulatory Authority of Ireland is preparing a new online gambling licensing regime for 2026.
A proposed advertising ban could change how gambling operators promote their services in Ireland.
