(Lima).- The Congressional Economy Commission unanimously approved the bill that regulates online sports betting. This initiative aims to formalize the aforementioned economic activity, preventing money laundering and providing greater support to Peruvian sports through a percentage of the taxes collected by the State.
The project authored by Congresswoman Diana Gonzales, from Avanza País caucus, argues that the national sport receives less budget each year. Now, it must be debated by the plenary session of the Parliament. “Peruvian sports, after the Lima 2019 Pan American Games, receive less budget each year and, in addition, due to the pandemic, the income that the IPD received directly through the Slots and Casinos Law, and the rental of sports infrastructure has been reduced considerably," the legislator specified.
In addition, it maintains that online sports betting is not regulated in Peru and that, in 2018, about 1,800 million soles were moved, with respect to which it was not taxed.
«Online sports betting is not regulated in Peru and, according to projections in 2018, they have moved around 1,800 million soles with respect to which it was not taxed. This bill seeks to raise more resources for the State for the benefit of the population and in particular the national athletes who need more support to represent us,” Gonzales pointed out.
