At a plenary meeting of the Mazhilis, at the beginning of May this year, deputies in the second reading adopted a draft law on gambling, lotteries, and lottery activities. Deputy Elnur Beisenbaev revealed the most important points of the new law.
He said that the bill specifies a list of persons who are restricted from participating in gambling and betting. The maximum period for a self-ban on gambling has been increased from one year to ten years. As it turns out, a year is very little. Many people continue to play actively after the restriction expires. The main thing is that it will be impossible to end the self-ban early.
Now, more than 3 million gamers will not be able to place bets, according to Majilisman.
