8. The draft Act introduces a new model for the provision of non-profit lotteries and liberalisation of land-based bingo. This will mean that there will be three types of lotteries exempted from the monopoly which is the general rule for lotteries in Denmark: (1) lotteries below a de minimis threshold, (2) non-profit lotteries and (3) bingo games in the liberalised market.

A new form of authorisation is thus introduced in Section 10 a of the Gaming Act, which makes it possible to obtain a licence for the offering of land-based bingo on the liberalised market without meeting the requirements
for non-profit lotteries. Providers of liberalised bingo will be subject to the same rules and level of duties as providers of other games in the land-based liberalised gaming market.

Section 1, Nos 1, 2, 8 and 9, and Sections 2, 3 and 4 of the draft Act are not notified as they are not considered to constitute technical barriers to trade. Thus, only Section 1, Nos 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 10, of the draft Act is notified.

9. There has been a need for more up-to-date rules for the organisation of lotteries in Denmark. Many small associations and aid organisations organise lotteries, including bingo, without being able to comply with the rules on the distribution of profits for a non-profit purpose.

More up-to-date rules are achieved by liberalising land-based bingo on an equal basis with other land-based games, allowing land-based bingo to be offered without donating profits for a non-profit purpose.
