ANJL calls for renewed dialogue with re-elected Lula on betting ban in Brazil

With Lula’s re-election, the betting sector will again begin mobilising for discussion with the Brazilian Executive to discuss the ban on betting. Provisional Measure 1,394 , announced by Lula last month, revoked all betting licences as of Sunday, and the first action will be to try to recover the authorisations. The National Association of Games and Lotteries (ANJL) issued a statement recognising the victory and making itself available to re-establish dialogue. Despite Lula’s criticism of the sector, the ANJL hopes for a democratic and transparent debate with the government.
