‹ Order of Business Betting and gambling legislation
Summary
Seán Crowe asks about betting and gambling-control Bills; the Taoiseach expects a redrafted betting Bill this session, while the broader gambling Bill still lacks authorisation and will come later.
When will the betting (amendment) Bill come before the House? Will it be superseded by the gambling control Bill?
Comment on this
It was withdrawn. I expect the redrafted Bill will be published during this session.
Comment on this
No, the gambling control Bill is a much more complex and extensive Bill, and authorisation has not been given yet for the Minister to proceed with it. It will be much later on. It is a very broad, complex and extensive Bill.
Comment on this
Will the Taoiseach give a rough estimation of when?
