Santa Fe deputies advance bill barring maintenance debtors from casinos, bingos and betting platforms
By The Weekly Edge desk ·
Summary
Santa Fe's provincial Chamber of Deputies has given half-approval to a bill that would bar people in arrears on child maintenance from casinos, bingo halls, top-flight AFA stadiums and betting platforms, including registering with them and collecting winnings. Casinos and betting operators would have to check a new provincial registry, with penalties of one to ten minimum salaries for non-compliance. The bill still needs Senate approval, and enforcement depends on agreements and control systems being put in place, so no ban is currently in force.
Why it matters
If approved, the bill would require operators to check a provincial registry, with penalties for non-compliance.
