Tuscany, from Assotabaccai doubts about regional rules for slots and game rooms

 

(Jamma) Just approved and already in the sights of operators. Last week the Regional Council of Tuscany approved a standard whose purpose should be to combat the phenomenon of pathological gambling. In reality it is a measure aimed at hitting, exclusively, the entertainment machine sector. Ban on opening gaming halls less than 500 meters from schools, churches, youth clubs, health or social welfare facilities; incentives for establishments that will remove the machines and an increase in theIRAP of 0,1% for those who will continue with similar activities: these are the salient points of the new provisions.

I remain thrilled in the face of this situation and also quite worried".
