Alberto Garzón, Spain’s minister for consumer affairs, has warned gambling operators to expect more changes to regulations in order to raise consumer protection standards.
Garzon, who was instrumental in developing Spain’s tough restrictions on gambling advertising passed in November, said he had the ministerial duty to centralize the governance of gambling law across Spain’s 17 autonomous communities.
Reviewing the progress made by the Ministry of Consumer Affairs in light of the Covid-19 pandemic, he told the ministry would publish its Phase 2 framework directives outlining further changes to Spain’s gambling regulations after parliamentary recess.
It includes a proposal that would require players to set individual loss limits for each individual wagering session. Phase 2 of Garzon’s reforms will also focus on updating the RGIAJ player self-exclusion system, with a central player database to be managed by the DGOJ.
There will be no advertising in the stadiums, there will be no advertising on the shirts, there will be no celebrities promoting betting houses and games of chance, and there will be no advertisements on the radio, on television or in any type of advertising medium.
