Gambling ad crackdown

CRISIS: STRICTER CONTROLS ON THE WAY
The days of gambling operators flooding the airwaves, billboards and sport pitches with advertising appear to be coming to a close.
The department of trade, industry and competition is drafting new rules and standards for gambling advertising, expected to be published by July.
This is partly in response to Rise Mzansi’s call for much tougher restrictions on gambling advertising and the massive social harm caused by an explosion of online betting since 2021.
“We will also be responding with standards to curb gambling advertising,” said department director-general Simphiwe Hamilton in response to Rise Mzansi’s Makashule Gana, according to Business Day. “We expect to publish these, and gambling advertising regulations, before July 2026.”
