Romania’s National Office for Gambling (ONJN) will convene its Consultative Council on 18 November to begin discussions on changes to the country’s gambling framework.

The agenda covers a national addiction-treatment programme, legislative reform, consistent self-exclusion procedures and action against the online black market.

Seven areas under review

Other topics include the effects of recent rules on gambling operations, recording player transactions in land-based venues, and drafting a framework regulation for online activities, fixed-odds betting and traditional gambling. ONJN says the meeting starts a broader consultation rather than announcing an adopted law.

The process follows changes to the working group responsible for drafting new legislation. Operators should monitor the consultation for possible changes to compliance requirements, player-protection procedures and the treatment of unlicensed websites.
