In order to bolster sports integrity, the Malta Gaming Authority has launched a new ‘Request for Information and Alerting System’. From October 16 onwards, all communication relating to the existing process will be relayed via the new system.
Further to this process, all correspondence relating to ‘Request for Information’ and ‘Alerts’, respectively, shall be monitored by the Sports Betting Integrity Department. Licensees are expected to reply to the respective ‘Requests for Information’ or ‘Alerts’ in a timely manner, in accordance with any deadline that may be applicable in relation thereto.
According to the regulator, the new ‘Request for Information and Alerting System’ is a user-friendly system. “We have developed a manual that will provide additional guidance in relation to the workings of the new system,” the MGA noted.
Moreover, earlier this week, the regulator issued a new guidance note related to changes in direct or indirect shareholding.
