Italy’s Council of State rejects suspension of Colognola betting venue denial
Italy’s Council of State rejected the operators’ request to suspend a ruling upholding the refusal of a betting shop and VLT venue in Colognola ai Colli. The court cited Veneto’s distance rules for sensitive sites, including outpatient clinics, and found that the company’s two other betting shops reduced the risk of irreparable harm.
The decision leaves the refusal in force and confirms the distance rules’ relevance to the proposed betting and VLT venue.
