Two bills affecting gambling are currently going through the Belgian parliament.

Belgium gaming bills before parliament

One is aimed at curbing advertising of gambling on local television and the other is to set a minimum age for online gambling.

The Christian Democratic and Flemish party requested limits on advertising on TV before 8.00pm. It is now also proposing that the minimum age for internet gambling should be raised from 18 to 21 to bring it into line with casinos.
