About this statute

This provision states that the law governs gaming activities and sets out the licensing, monitoring, and regulation process for games of chance. This article defines key terms used in the law on gaming and betting. This article lists the categories of gaming covered here and allows the competent organ to add another game to the list if needed. The Ministry in charge of commerce has overall control of gaming activities, and a Prime Minister’s Order may designate another gaming regulatory authority if needed. The regulatory authority must oversee gaming, handle licences and permits, supervise the consultative committee, investigate compliance, and suspend or revoke licences that breach the law.
