PQ 347
347. Deputy Brendan Griffin asked the Minister for Justice her views on the alignment between the objective of the Gambling Regulation Bill to protect vulnerable persons and the exclusion of the National Lottery from the purview of the Gambling Regulatory Authority of Ireland, particularly in light of recent findings from the Economic and Social Research Institute study on problem gambling, which identified lotteries and scratch cards as the most prevalent forms of gambling and thus, addiction; how this exemption aligns with the broader objectives of the Bill aimed at promoting responsible practices within the gambling industry; and if she will make a statement on the matter.
