Italian opposition criticises proposal to share gaming revenue with regions
Italy’s opposition, including Alleanza Verdi Sinistra, criticised a proposal for regions to receive a share of gaming revenue through the next budget law. Elisabetta Piccolotti argued the measure could make regional budgets reliant on gaming income and weaken incentives to fund campaigns against gambling harm; the party said its budget proposals would instead direct more resources to regions for that work.
The proposal could affect regional gaming revenue and funding for measures addressing gambling harm.
