Make sure online players don't become victims, NOGA said
⏱ 1 min read
(Netherlands).- NOGA, the Dutch trade association of online gambling providers, strongly appeals to Minister Weerwind for Legal Protection not to make irreversible decisions now. It affirms that it is thoughtless and irresponsible that a majority in the House of Representatives supports the motion to ban online advertising for online gambling.
NOGA director Peter-Paul de Goeij pointed: “The House is trying to force a decision based on wrong figures, assumptions and unrealistic fears.”
At the end of this year, the Ministry of Justice and Security will evaluate the online gambling law. “There is really not enough hard data to make sensible decisions at the moment, which is why a lot of research is now being done. Let's wait for those results and then have a substantive discussion and make decisions that will protect online players as best as possible against problematic gambling and gambling addiction.”
NOGA emphasizes that due to a ban on online advertising, players will no longer know whether they are playing at a legal provider or an illegal casino. And those illegal, often criminal casinos offer players no protection against gambling addiction.
The purpose of legalizing online gambling was and is precisely for players to try their luck in a safe and responsible online environment. At licensed companies where the protection of all players has the highest priority.
