Italian Constitutional Court voids provision restricting online gambling access
Italy’s Constitutional Court declared Article 7, paragraph 4 of the Balduzzi decree unconstitutional, concerning a ban on making internet-connected devices available in public venues for online betting and gaming. San Nicola addiction centre director Alessia Marcaccio welcomed the ruling and argued that education and treatment are preferable to prohibition.
The ruling removes a restriction on public venues providing internet access for online betting and gaming.
