European Commission Sends E.U. States to Court of Justice

The European Commission has decided to take action against eleven EU member states, as they believe they are breaking EU Law when it comes to online gambling.  This is the very first time the European Commission has taken any EU Member states to the EU Court of Justice over their online gambling laws.

The European Commission has given the states plenty of time to make amendments to how they organise and advertise online gambling.  However, no steps had been made to make any changes, which left the commission having to take legal action.
