Ireland’s gambling regulator (GRAI) will establish an industry panel to ensure its views are heard and considered while forming regulations, it has told iGB in an interview.

Ireland’s gambling regulator was established under the Gambling Regulation Act 2024 last year, to oversee the formation of Ireland’s gambling regulatory framework. It will oversee the awarding of licences for all Irish gambling activities, except for the national lottery.

Earlier this month (5 March), the GRAI officially came into force with the appointment of seven staff members. However, GRAI CEO Anne-Marie Caulfield has been in the role since 2022, to help establish the regulator and guide its setup.
