Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality

General Scheme of the Gambling Regulation Bill: Discussion

Mr. Martin Le Jeune:

There is no dispute between us and the Senator. We need to understand, as does the regulator, the Irish market more fully than we have ever done before. There are similarities and differences in the cultural approach to gambling but the evidence base we have is not sufficient to prove or disprove that point.
