The Denmark Government recently announced that they have decided to deregulate gambling in the country. Denmark has seen a gaming monopoly run for sixty years in the country by Danske Spil which was state owned. The government will now begin to offer a regulated gaming market.
One main reason the government has decided to get rid of the gaming monopoly is because the European Commission had filed a lawsuit against the monopoly accusing them of violating free market regulations. Denmark fought the suit by stating 1.6 billion of their revenues went to charitable and youth organizations. But this did nothing for the European Commission.
Who knows, maybe Denmark will be the next Vegas...pshh. Doubt it.
