A number of amendments to Belgium’s Gambling Act have been published in the country’s Official Gazette, one of which mandates Belgium’s regulator to meet with licensee representatives once per year.
The amendments were published [Wednesday] and reiterated by Belgium’s regulator, the Commission des Jeux de Hasard (CJH). The new measures will come into force on 1 June 2024.
Under the new measures, the CJH must meet with licence holder representatives once per year and discuss player protection measures. The regulator must provide a yearly update on these meetings in its annual report.
On the subject of player protection, another amendment will see the phrases ’18 years’ and ‘minors’ replaced with ’21 years’.
