Gambling Regulation Bill to come before Cabinet for approval

Among the other new measures to protect children will be a ban on gambling advertising between 5.30am-9pm each day. There will be prohibitions on allowing children into any premises where gambling occurs and protections to ensure children do not have access to remote or online gambling. Advertisements will be required not to attract children.

Mr Browne has said in the recent past he expects the new laws to commence in 2023, including the full operation of the seven-person authority. Anne Marie Caulfield has already been appointed as chief executive.The Bill will also provide for a national gambling exclusion register. All gambling companies which offer services in Ireland, either physically or online, will have to register with the authority.

It is understood there will be powers in the Bill to prevent gambling to be used as a means of laundering money for terrorist and criminal enterprises.The Cabinet will also be asked to approve a bid by Ireland and the UK to host the Euro 2028 football tournament. Ministers Catherine Martin and Jack Chambers will bring the memo to Ministers asking for permission to send a letter of support from Government to the Football Association of Ireland .
