"This report serves to delineate some important issues with regard to a sector which, until today, has had very varied and fragmented regulations. It is right that Member States should retain their exclusive authorities, but only within a defined framework of collaboration and coordination on a continental scale. This can be very useful in tackling illegal online gambling, which very often comes from countries outside the EU – more precisely, from Asia. Online games can be an important source of revenue for Member States and it is therefore necessary to fight fraud and other forms of cheating, which could take away vast resources.
Moreover, the necessary warning, expressed many times in the report, is clear enough: attentive care should be taken to protect minors and weaker people from the potential risks encountered by playing online games. An important role could be assigned to greater collaboration within the sector to strive to detect and prevent fraud in sport, which is a phenomenon that has found its latest frontier with the Internet. This report underlines these and many other important points, which is why I decided to vote in favour."@en1
