According to the Committee, the draft law inter alia does not give clear administrative procedure of holding planned and sudden inspections in the field of state lotteries.

The legislative terms touching total online-control of financial transactions in the field of gambling are corruptogenic, as they contain no clear regulatory conditions and rules of administrative procedure of functioning of the State E-Monitoring System.

Taking the aforementioned in account, the Committee recommended rejecting the said draft law.
