"I fully share the Green Paper’s concerns regarding the extent of the illegal online gambling market and the Member States’ prerogative to ascertain and impose sanctions on operators who provide gambling services without concession and authorisation from the state in which the gambler resides.
Moreover, Mr Creutzmann’s report underlines the need to integrate national standards within a common framework across Europe (a ‘coordinated European approach’) to resolve cross-border issues, and asks the Commission to verify whether the common EU standards and regulations are appropriate for tackling common challenges such as consumer protection, the fight against illegal gambling and criminal activity, and protecting the integrity of the game and sport.
I am in absolute agreement as regards the urgency to adopt the necessary measures to protect the integrity of the sport and to implement better coordination between states and relevant organisations. I find particularly interesting the proposal to adopt a common definition of sports fraud and to recognise this as a criminal act all over Europe (in Italy, there is already a law of 1989 which defines the crime of sports fraud)."@en1
