(Latvia).- The Latvia Lotteries and Gambling Supervision Inspection, IAUI, published a new blacklist of gambling websites that will no longer be allowed to operate in the country. The websites include leading services such as Bwin.com, Pokerstars.eu, Unibet.com, Unibet.net Betway.com, Fulltilt, Poker.eu, Pokerstars.com, 888.com, Bet365.com, Betfair.com and Williamhill.com.

Other websites named on the blacklist include Triobet.com, Betsafe.com, 888games.com, 888play.com, Expekt.com, Spinpalace.com, Casino.com, Betsson.com and Casinoeuro.com.

The blacklist has been published under the basis of the Electronic Communications Law, beginning on August 1.

In May, the regulator signed a co-operation agreement with the gambling authorities in Latvia’s neighbouring Baltic states of Lithuania and Estonia covering the “sharing or exchange of good practices in the field of supervision and control of the organisation of lotteries and gambling”.
