UKGC joins seven regulators in declaration against illegal gambling
The UK Gambling Commission joined regulators from Austria, France, Germany, Italy, Portugal and Spain in a declaration on combating illegal gambling. The group plans to share information and practices to identify and sanction illegal operators, and called on digital platforms and social media networks to tackle related advertising. The UKGC also said it would continue its Gambling Survey for Great Britain research project.
Information-sharing commitments could affect how operators face scrutiny over illegal-market activity and advertising.
