Representative Belén Malaisi introduced a project that involves a change in Article 55 of the regulation.
Argentina.- The representative from the Province of Buenos Aires, Belén Malaisi, revived a project she authored that modifies the Buenos Aires Education Law with the goal of blocking online gambling sites from school internet networks.
“It is time to move forward with structural changes that limit the access of the youngest to online gambling platforms,” stated the legislator from San Andrés de Giles through her social networks.
Malaisi proposes a change in Article 55 of the Buenos Aires Education Law, so that the General Directorate of Culture and Education (DGCE) of the province of Buenos Aires can fully engage in the fight against online gambling in school classrooms, the main scene of problematic gambling activity by the youth.
In her initiative, Malaisi pointed out that cases of gambling addiction in public and private schools in Buenos Aires have been increasing recently, which she considered necessary to “take urgent measures to limit this practice in our youth”.
“The use of technology in teaching and learning processes, access to information, cannot be denied to such an extent that the education law has a specific chapter on virtuality. But neither can the dangers that certain platforms or gambling sites on internet social networks pose to our youth and children, encouraging gambling addiction or compulsive gambling,” indicated the legislator, in the reasons for the text.
Furthermore, the representative recalled that in 2017 the Buenos Aires Ombudsman's Office created the Observatory of Addictions and Problematic Consumption which, among its objectives, aimed to end the scourge of gambling addiction. This year, the entity published a guide that offers a series of recommendations for responsible gaming, prevention tools on online platforms, and a self-assessment test to find out if one is suffering from this disease.
