Gambling Regulation Bill 2022: Committee Stage
Seanad Éireann — 2024-09-25
============================================================

Michael McDowell (IND), National University of Ireland

I support the two amendments that were discussed. They are sensible. Nowadays there are very elaborate activities whereby a person is asked to answer some stupid question, which then turns into a lottery. RTÉ does a lot of it. That must be dealt with. It is a lottery, and gaining access to a lottery by answering a moronic question correctly does not change it from being a lottery. I support that.
