Euskal Irrati Telebista (EITB), Basque country public broadcaster, has banned gambling-related advertising across its TV, radio and digital platforms. The broadcaster becomes the second Spanish media firm to put an end to gambling advertisements being shown, following in the footsteps of Radio-Television Madrid.
The EITB board has detailed that its decision to ban advertisements were a “necessary enforcement” to ensure that it continues “protecting and safeguarding the right of the most vulnerable against the serious problems of addiction that gambling and betting can create”.

PSOE, who are currently weighing-up ‘partnership options’ for governing Spain, has committed to reforming the Spanish advertising code, focusing on restricting gambling content.
