Piemonte region. Cattaneo: "The bartenders who remove slots are an example of civilization for each of us"

(Jamma) The president of the regional council of Piedmont, Valerio Cattaneo, praises the three owners of the Domodossola bars who have said no to slot machines. An initiative against the "machines" of electronic gambling, often a source of problems for those who get carried away. «The determination and courage of these traders – underlines Cattaneo – who have decided to give up the revenues recognized to the premises that host the slots, do him credit. They show that where a law, a resolution or an ordinance fails to intervene, common sense and enterprise can do it".

 

Cattaneo recalls having written to the Speaker of the Chamber, Laura Boldrini, «to urge the parliament to question and adopt the proposed law on the fight against gambling that the regional council of Piedmont approved unanimously. In the meantime, while waiting for the Chamber to go against the logic of the "public gambler", congratulations again for the Domodossola initiative and the courageous choice of these exhibitors, a true civic example for each of us".
