Yesterday, France has approved a law that allows online casinos and online gambling legal. Still, there is already criticism: according to a handful of specialists in the gaming industry, France has not sufficiently meets the requirements of the European Union. A previous legislative proposal was rejected, in June, because the EU is not consistent with the commitments made within Europe about gambling.

Conflict in European Agreements
One of the points of the original Bill was that casinos were able to obtain a license only, as they actually were established in France, and of a French bank account. This is in contravention of the agreements that have been created within the EU. Hereinafter referred to as paste anything from the law Franrkijk, but the new law is also designed for a foreign casino is difficult to get a license.

Major players included
It is within the new legislative proposal, for example, you can’t remove a license from the French Government, as the online casino is established in a country that is a particularly favorable tax environment, such as Gibraltar. As a result, casinos such as PartyGaming, Ladbrokes, bwin excluded, but major players in the market.

Lotteries
In any case, there is one sector that is to be welcomed in this idea: the lotteries, who were forced to establish themselves in countries with an unfavorable tax environment. The President of the Association for European lotteries, Friedrich Stickler, said in a statement: “we have no business need to make a profit over social and ethical concerns, and that the responsibility of the whole of the social security contributions from the Governments of European countries.” In other words, to operate from Gibraltar gaming houses have an unfair advantage, that this proposal will be corrected.
