Gambling Regulation Bill 2022: Committee Stage (Resumed)
Seanad Éireann — 2024-09-26
============================================================

Mark Wall (LAB), Industrial and Commercial Panel

I move amendment No. 38:
In page 21, between lines 30 and 31, to insert the following:
“(6) For the avoidance of doubt, this Act applies to gambling activities carried on by, or on the premises of, a private members’ club in like manner as it applies to such activities carried on by, or on the premises of, any other natural or legal person or unincorporated body of persons.”.
We spoke about this in the opening contributions last night about private clubs and gambling, not just in Dublin but throughout the country.
The amendment asks that private clubs be listed under the new legislation. We went into detail last night so I will not go back over it. I would appreciate the Minister of State's reply.
