STS president calls for Italy’s gambling reform to address distance and time limits
STS president Emiliano Zamparelli urged a broader approach to Italy’s land-based gambling reform at a Rome conference on 4 March 2026. He said distance rules and operating-hour limits should be addressed alongside tenders, and called for dialogue among industry participants before discussions with the administration and economy ministry.
The reform’s treatment of distance and operating-hour restrictions could affect how land-based gambling concessions operate.
