Vol. 490 No. 2

Written Answers - Betting Legislation.

Phil Hogan

Question:

160 Mr. Hogan asked the Minister for Finance the legislation, if any, he is considering to prevent persons under 18 years of age from betting; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [9770/98]

At the moment both the Department of Justice, Equality and Law Reform and my Department are examining the issue of young people betting with the tote. I cannot say at this stage what will be the outcome. Any decision on legislative changes cannot be made until the examination is completed.
