Summary: |
The social alarm caused by the
rise of gambling and bets among minors,
the advertising of betting shops and the
proliferation of these stores in our cities and
towns has forced the different Spanish insti-
tutions to react, in a more or less thoughtful
way, through the elaboration of norms that
regulate -more- the gaming sector. Among
its objectives we identify the minimization
of possible psychological and socio-eco-
nomic harm derived from gambling, pre-
vent the participation of the most vulnerable
population, regulate the advertising or limit
the opening of new premises depending
on the distance between them, education-
al centers and other betting premises. One
of the first institutions to take action has
been the Junta de Extremadura, through
Decreto-Ley 1/2019, of February 5th., which
regulates the minimum mandatory distance
between gaming establishments to educa-
tional centers and the mandatory minimum
distance between the game establishments
themselves. The objective of this work is
to analyze the degree of compliance with
these measures in Extremadura, with spe-
cial attention to the city of Cáceres. |
