A European Casino Association survey on the European casino industry, covering all of the member states, shows that overall revenues fell by 6.5 per cent.

In the case of Spain, for example, the survey reveals that a decline is due to the “economic situation, high rates, the smoking ban and online gambling.”

The report is the first detailed examination of the European casino market, giving details of the situation of each country and in particular the current state of its casino industry.
