"I voted in favour of this report because I agree with the introduction of common minimum standards to better define this sector. It is not only a matter of market volume, though that is important. We are talking about an activity that creates addiction and hence, online gambling could be significantly different to offline gambling. I congratulate the rapporteur, Mr Creutzmann, for two reasons: the fighting stance adopted on addiction and abuse, on the one hand, and the steadfast respect for the principle of subsidiarity, on the other. I am somewhat baffled over the introduction of the concept of the right to bet. I am not sure that all the implications have been weighed up sufficiently, and I would also point out that this decision is in contrast to the decision taken by the Italian Government. I remain, in any case, confident as to the freedom that the aforementioned principle of subsidiarity will afford to each Member State’s discretionary powers. I await the new proposal by the Commission, hoping sincerely that the changes on the possibility of auto-exclusion can be taken into consideration."@en1
