Jaldung also took the opportunity to thank Veronika Tisold from the European Affairs Consulting Group (EACON), who is going on maternity leave from her position at EACON, a contractor to the ECA, and thus also stepping down from her role as Executive Director of the ECA: "On behalf of all ECA members, I would like to thank Veronika for her efforts in maintaining a strong, active and independent ECA and wish her and her family all the best for the future."

Hermann Pamminger has taken up his position as General Secretary of the ECA, the association that represents licensed land-based casinos in Europe, with effect from 31 March 2020.
