The document also foresees the change of the taxing system of the winnings from the gambling games and the banning of advertising in the field.

The state will control the activity of the halls were are approximately 80% of the gambling machines.

"They are the most hazardous and the biggest dependency comes from these machines. They will be banned and only the state will have the monopoly and will decide in which conditions, where, when they will be opened" declared the PDM deputy Sergiu Sarbu.

Previously, the first deputy president of PDM Vlad Plahotniuc declared that there is needed a more stringent regulation of the gambling field.
