Debate on Brazilian gaming gets closer
The representatives of the Senate and Chamber of Deputies talk about the progress of the game in Brazil.
Brazil.- The president of the Brazilian Senate, Eunício Oliveira, is trying to take the debate on the games of chance in the South American country to the next legislative sessions. The members of the Brazilian Congress will discuss in the upcoming weeks the possible advances of the laws that seek to regulate the national market.
As some members of parliament announced this week, political parties are preparing to vote on tightly regulated legislation to approve casinos, bingo halls and online games. The Brazilian industry is one of the most expected at the international level, which promises a high profitability.
Oliveira’s remarks come after a meeting between congressional leaders and Brazilian state governors, who are pushing for revenues from the expansion of the game to be used to help support public safety services.
The legalisation of the game bill could be voted on, which then becomes a new impulse for lawmakers seeking to approve the activity in the country. According to the president of the Chamber of Deputies, Rodrigo Maia, the signature would be processed by the lower house in a few days after being stuck for more than a year.
The legalisation of the game seems to have gained momentum in the collective effort of an advocate for the approval of the sector in Brazil. However, forceful the words of Deputy Maia may seem, it could be a new fiasco like those to which the law has no longer been accustomed, making many announcements without making determinations.
