“The fact minors can participate in online gambling is unacceptable,” said HW Kesler, vice-chairman of the Dutch Gaming Authority in a press release.
According to the authority, further guidelines will be focus on those operators that target the Dutch market with games of chance via a website with a .com extension; illegal online gambling offers advertised via radio, television or print media focused on the Dutch market and the use of domain names containing typical Netherlands references.
