Gambling Supervision Commission doesn't expect Brexit impact

Fri, 10 Feb 2017

The Island's Gambling Supervision Commission insists Brexit will have a minimal impact on the industry.

The gambling industry's governing body will present its annual report at this month's sitting of Tynwald, including a section outlining the potential impact of the UK's withdrawal from the European Union.

The Commission believes there won't be too many problems for Manx companies, as EU countries aren't the main markets for firms operating on the Island.

It adds that there is no European Directive for online gambling and that each country has its own gambling regulations.
