"I voted in favour of this report on online gambling in the internal market. As the Internet, by its very nature, is a cross-border medium, European legislation in this sector is absolutely essential. I am therefore calling for collective action at EU level to combat illegal gaming, money laundering, addiction and fraud, notably in sport. As the report notes, this regulation should, in particular, channel the natural gaming instinct of the population by restricting advertising to the level that is strictly necessary in order to direct potential gamblers to legal services. It should also require all advertising for online gambling to be systematically coupled with a message warning against excessive or pathological gambling. It will be up to each Member State, in accordance with the principle of subsidiarity, to take the most appropriate measures in this burgeoning sector. This is another concrete action at European level to improve consumer protection."@en1
