The European commission is to intensify its legal action against Denmark,
Finland, Hungary and Sweden in an effort to open the gambling market across
the entire European Union, Reuters quoted unnamed sources as saying on
Tuesday. A source told the news agency that the commission was "making final
enquiries" in relation to Germany and the Netherlands. The warning is the
last signal to the countries before they face the European Court of Justice.
In April, the commission launched an investigation into state-controlled
gambling monopolies.
