Italian Democratic Party MP Stefano Vaccari warned that a further extension could delay the reorganisation of land-based gambling, citing a possible 29 August 2026 deadline. He also criticised limits on local access to gambling data, saying an Italian Customs and Monopolies Agency circular dated 13 May 2025 had prevented territorial offices from sharing information.
