The President of Brazil's Lower House, Rodrigo Maia, said he intends to call a vote on HB 442/1991 before year’s end. The proposal had been approved on August 30, 2016 by the country’s Special Gaming Commission.
Maia has vowed to vote on the piece of legislation next month. “If the bill is approved by the Congress, construction of casinos could kick off by 2018,” stated Rep. Nelson Marquezell.
HB 442/1991, which would legalize and regulate gambling in Brazil, was green-lighted by the country’s Special Gaming Commission in August 2016. The project has gained momentum in recent days with the inauguration of a pro-gambling parliamentary front.
