Gambling control legislation

Summary

Niall Collins asked about legislation modernising gambling and casino regulation; the Taoiseach said its heads had not yet been approved and it would come next year.

More than 12 months ago, in September 2011, the Minister for Justice and Equality announced a Government decision to introduce new legislation to modernise the gambling, casino and private members' clubs in operation around the country. When will the Bill be published and debated in the House?

The heads of the gambling control Bill have not been approved yet by the Government. Therefore, it will be next year before it arrives on the table.
