“The reputation of neither the Ministry of Digital Economy nor Mykhailo Fedorov, who is responsible for this area, will suffer… We are watching closely.” Hetmantsev reminded Playcity of the imminent deadline for implementing a system that is extremely important for the state

The Chairman of the Verkhovna Rada Committee on Finance, Tax and Customs Policy, Danylo Hetmantsev,reminded the state agency Playcity on his Telegram channel that the deadline established by law for putting the state online monitoring system for the gambling market into operation expires on September 30.
He emphasized that it was the blocking of the launch of this system at the request of gambling organizers, who are doing everything possible to stay out of the shadows, that became the basis for the liquidation of KRAIL.
Recall that Playcity has already held consultations with market participants regarding the upcoming launch of the monitoring system in July 2025. The exact launch date was not specified. The relevant system must be launched in accordance with the provisions of the law, which entered into force at the beginning of this year.
«I am convinced that this time the law will be implemented in a timely manner. The reputation of neither the Ministry of Digital Economy nor Mykhailo Fedorov, who is responsible for this area, will suffer. And we will not be forced to demand extremely painful consequences for those involved. We are watching closely,» Hetmantsev wrote.
He also reminded of the resumption of scheduled inspections of gambling organizers.
«Somewhere, perhaps, the digital team’s priorities shifted between market whitening and divorces in Action…», wrote Hetmantsev.
Let us recall that this week, Playcity CEO Gennady Novikovannounced the conditions under which online media and bloggers will be able to start advertising casinos on the Internet again. To do this, you need to register with the National Council for Television and Radio Broadcasting and put a 21+ mark on the site.
This caused outrage among representatives of the media community. «It is clearly unfair when someone makes a whole page with „the best casinos“, but at the same time puts the mark „21“ in the footer (!), and there somewhere in the eighth paragraph writes in small print about the harm — and someone puts one announcement with a mention and gets a 4.8 million fine,» wrote Oksana Romanyuk, director of the Institute of Mass Information, under one of Gennady Novikova’s latest posts.
Recall that Playcity fined the editorial staff of dev.ua UAH 4.8 million for the announcement of Oleksandr Usyk’s last fight with Briton Daniel Dubois, in which the event partner, GGbet, was mentioned (without a reference to the brand itself and without calls to play, without information about bets). The attendance of this announcement is 110 clicks. The editorial staff is preparing a lawsuit.
