As far back as 2013, the Government introduced the Gambling Control Bill. Earlier this year, Fianna Fáil introduced the Gambling Control Bill 2018. Yesterday, what happened in the UK regarding a £2.2 million penalty package for social responsibility and money laundering failures on its gambling exchange were widely reported. I ask the Government to imagine the number of cases in Ireland. Where exactly are we in bringing forward a gambling regulator for Ireland and can we have a definite timeline in that regard?
