EU opens inquiry into effect of US Internet gambling laws on EU companies
The European Commission said it is launching an investigation under EU trade rules into US measures that potentially affect European suppliers of Internet gambling services. The inquiry follows a complaint lodged by the Remote Gambling Association (RGA) in December last year. "European industry claims that the US should not be allowed to enforce gambling laws selectively against foreign suppliers, with respect to services offered at a time when the US had WTO commitments permitting online gambling," the commission said in a statement. The commission said it will now examine whether these actions are in breach of international trade rules and discuss the matter with the US.
