"Mr Musumeci, I can only repeat the context I have just outlined. In fact, the situation of gaming houses is different in the various Member States. We have seen that the Court has confirmed the Member States’ power to decide in this field, and I must add, as regards the point you stressed on the distribution within a State’s territory, that competition rules and the principle of non-discrimination do not require Member States to take into account regional considerations when awarding licenses for gaming houses or other permits for the organisation of games of chance. Competition rules do not raise objections to the criteria that a Member State may use and therefore based on those rules, we cannot consider the decision a Member State makes on the distribution in their territory to be arbitrary, and consequently, a violation of these rules."@en1
