Deregulation in the field of Games on Chance/on line Gambling – in favour of Citizens
When we discuss the games on chance regulatory framework, we cannot miss one of its major parts: the on-line gambling issues. The regulation of this area is of outmost importance because of its social impact, such as protection of minors, protection of consumers, large possibility of addiction problems and money laundering. At the moment, there is no compliance with these rules at the European Union (EU) level. The only source of secondary law in this area, at the moment, is the European Court of Justice case law. Problems with online gambling have been rising permanently since the Internet became more and more popular. This area has been one of the fastest growing industries in the past ten years. Along with that, the questions of cross- border gambling issues are arising as well. Gambling is recognized as one of the fastest growing social problems. This article explores the possibility of protecting citizens/consumers from bad influences that are caused by on-line gambling. We are certain that one of the possibilities is to comply and regulate the rules dealing with this issue. The EU Law gambling sector is regulated by the rules of free movement of services and, according to those provisions, the operators are authorized to provide services from one European member state to another. The Member states can restrict that freedom only by overriding reasons in the public interest. According to the recent trends, the restrictions imposed to on-line gambling by each member state vary from being lawful to being illegal. This article gives an overview of the current situation in the EU legislation and stresses out the suggestions on what type of regulation is the best for EU citizens.
