lpv:translated text	"The economic importance of online gambling is increasing constantly and it now accounts for nearly half the entire betting market. The Member States alone are responsible for legislating this sector. It is good that the EU recognises the particular nature of this specific market and the risks inherent in it in terms of consumer protection and combating organised crime. The Creutzmann report proposes a series of effective measures to wipe out illegal gambling and improve consumer protection. Although the report contains positive provisions, I abstained because it leaves the door open to deregulation/liberalisation of the online gambling market. This not only negates the above proposals in practice; it also increases the opportunities for illegal practices, such as match fixing, illegal betting cartels, money laundering, betting by minors and so forth."@en1
