Malta supports raising standards | IXGAMES
It was stated in the House of Lords that Malta supports the UK intention of raising standards in on-line gambling. Lord Faulkner of Worcester asked Her Majestys Government whether they will make representations to the Gambling Commission to hold talks with gambling regulators in Gibraltar and Malta to ensure that the standards of on-line gambling regulation in those jurisdictions are comparable to those in the United Kingdom. 
Lord Davies of Oldham said: The government work very closely with the Gambling Commission on all issues relating to on-line gambling. Representatives from both Gibraltar and Malta attended the governments international remote gambling summit held on 31 October 2006 where they, along with many other jurisdictions, indicated that they fully support the UK Governments intention to raise standards in on-line gambling regulation. Following the summit, we will continue to involve Malta and Gibraltar in the process for establishing international standards, which is now underway. The Gambling Commission will also continue to meet representatives of Gibraltar and Malta through their membership of the International Association of Gambling Regulators.
