Dear friends, within Gaming Congress Kazakhstan, which will be held on August 20, 2015, we will talk about legal aspects of the regulation of the gambling industry in the country. A representative of Dentons Company Aigoul Kenjebayeva will speak on this topic http://gamingcongress.kz/en/program .
It is known that the law of the Republic of Kazakhstan “On Gambling” was released in January 2007. It is a basic legislative act regulating the activities in the gambling business.
A lot of experts point out that today the law does not have a clear distinction between such concepts as “game” and “gambling business” and other activities organized during your leisure time, which involve draw of prizes and lotteries, but do not provide for payment in cash.
During her report, a recognized expert Aigoul Kenjebayeva will tell more about the legislative framework of the gambling industry in Kazakhstan.
