Spain announces three online gambling harm-prevention measures
Spain’s secretary-general for Consumer Affairs and Gambling, Andrés Barragán, announced three planned measures at the First Ibero-American Responsible Gambling Meeting. They would prevent bettors from bypassing limits by switching operators, change advertising warnings to include operators’ gains and replace current risk-player controls with a system designed by public health professionals.
Operators may face cross-company betting limits, revised advertising warnings and a new system for identifying at-risk players.
