RGA & EGBA make a complaint against the Belgium gaming law

23 June 2010

The Remote Gambling Association (RGA) and the European Gaming and Betting
Association (EGBA) have today lodged a joint complaint to the European Commission
on the basis that the recently adopted Belgian gambling legislation is not compliant with
EU law.
A number of elements of the Belgian legislation are designed to protect the domestic Belgian
gambling market from legitimate competition by putting in place unacceptable barriers to
new entrants seeking to offer online gambling.
