Italy’s Senate backs call for EU cooperation on suspicious sports betting
Italy’s Senate approved amendments to the sports decree bill and sent it back to the Chamber of Deputies for further examination. It also approved a motion asking the government to consider stronger EU cooperation on monitoring suspicious sports bets and supporting mixed national task forces; proposed betting-sponsorship restrictions and anti-gambling-harm campaigns were ruled inadmissible.
The motion urges government consideration of cross-border monitoring and national cooperation against suspicious betting.
