Question for written answer E-009314-15
to the Commission
Rule 130
David Casa (PPE)

In a particular national gambling law that has been notified to the Commission it is being suggested that a remote gaming licence may only be provided to operators that have a land-based presence or intend to do so within a particular time-frame following the obtaining of such licence.

Can the Commission comment on the compatibility of this provision with the fundamental freedoms?
