Spain’s new coalition government, headed by Pedro Sánchez, has said it will bring gambling advertising regulations in line with those imposed on the tobacco industry.
“We will approve a regulation of the advertising of gambling – online gambling and betting – at the state level and similar to that of tobacco products,” the coalition agreement states. Specific details, however, have not yet been disclosed.
Considering the harsh rhetoric directed at the gambling sector during the latest election campaign, these new restrictions have the potential to significantly change Spain’s gambling landscape. Alberto Garzón is to be appointed as Minister of Consumer Affairs and will oversee the further development of Spain’s gambling regulation.
