Brazil trade bodies call for Supreme Court to suspend betting ban
By The Weekly Edge desk ·
Summary
ANJL and IBJR have asked Brazil’s Supreme Federal Court to suspend Provisional Measure 1,394, which prohibited betting site operations. They argue it lacks the required urgency and could undermine existing licences, public revenue and consumer safeguards. Anseja has separately challenged the measure and requested that current authorisations remain in force pending a final ruling.
Why it matters
The suspension request puts existing licences, public revenue and consumer safeguards at stake while the measure is reviewed.
