Norway’s government introduced a 2022–2025 action plan to prevent gambling problems, developed with the Norwegian Gambling and Foundation Authority, the Media Authority and the Directorate of Health. The plan prioritises research, public information and earlier identification and treatment; the 2019 population survey cited in the plan estimated that 55,000 people in Norway had gambling problems.
The plan sets prevention and information priorities that can affect gambling operators and public-health oversight in Norway.
