Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality: General Scheme of the Gambling Regulation Bill: Discussion (8 Mar 2022)

Thomas Gould: I revert to a question I asked earlier about under 18s being able to see advertisements on social media and online. Have the witnesses spoken to Twitter, Facebook and other social media outlets about ensuring that under 18s do not see those ads?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality: General Scheme of the Gambling Regulation Bill: Discussion (8 Mar 2022)

Thomas Gould: I have two daughters. Last year, when they were 14 and 11, they were able to see these ads online. During the Covid restrictions, many people spent more time on social media and online. If my children and other children can see them, I find it hard to believe it has been in place for two and a half years. If it has been in place for two and a half years, why is it not working?

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality: General Scheme of the Gambling Regulation Bill: Discussion (8 Mar 2022)

Thomas Gould: Can we take it that this is in operation? If a person walks into a betting shop and does not want to bet any more, is the information given to every other betting shop, of the 800 betting shops, that this is a person who does not want to gamble? If this person says they have a gambling problem, does this happen?
