The hearing was organised by the Secretariat of Public Policy Evaluation, Planning, Energy and Lottery of the Ministry of Finance (SECAP.ME).<\/p>\n<p>Brazil is trying to move forward with the official project that will allow the legal operation of\u00a0<strong><em>sports betting<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0in the country. The executive secretary of the Ministry of Economy, Marcelo Guaranys, represented\u00a0 Minister Paulo Guedes at the opening of the Sports Betting Regulation Seminar in Brazil.<\/p>\n<p>The event discussed the regulation of sports betting in Brazil and the need for some necessary adjustments to Law 13,756 \/ 18 by the National Congress. The guests were: Economy Minister Paulo Guedes; Senator Darius Berger (MDB.SC); Deputy Pedro Paulo (DEM.RJ); the secretary Alexandre Manoel; the special secretary of sport, general D\u00e9cio dos Santos Brazil; the lawyer Pedro Trengouse; the president of the Brazilian Olympic Committee, Wanderley Teixeira; former deputy PT and representative of the Alliance of Brazilian Clubs, Vicente Candido, and the deputy special secretary, Esteves Pedro Colnago Jr.<\/p>\n<p>Local press reported in the last few days that sports betting in Brazil is moving forward. It is believed that the Chamber of Deputies has already started changing regulations. Relevant authorities are believed to be part of the discussions.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, it seems that the Ministry of Economy may choose to submit an amendment to a bill already pending in the National Congress. Thus, the draft sports betting legislation in Brazil would soon be defined.<\/p>\n<p class=\"author__bio\" itemprop=\"description\">\n<p class=\"comment-form-comment\"><label class=\"show-on-ie8\" for=\"comment\">Comment<\/label><br \/>\n<textarea aria-required=\"true\" cols=\"45\" id=\"comment\" name=\"comment\" placeholder=\"Message\" rows=\"8\"><\/textarea><\/p>\n<p class=\"comment-form-author\"><label class=\"show-on-ie8\" for=\"author\">Name<\/label><input aria-required=\"true\" id=\"author\" name=\"author\" placeholder=\"Name...\" size=\"30\" type=\"text\" value=\"\"\/><\/p>\n<p class=\"comment-form-email\"><label class=\"show-on-ie8\" for=\"name\">Email<\/label><input aria-required=\"true\" id=\"email\" name=\"email\" placeholder=\"Email...\" size=\"30\" type=\"text\" value=\"\"\/><\/p>\n<p class=\"comment-form-url\"><label class=\"show-on-ie8\" for=\"url\">Url<\/label><input id=\"url\" name=\"url\" placeholder=\"Website...\" size=\"30\" type=\"text\" value=\"\"\/><\/p>\n<p class=\"comment-form-cookies-consent\"><input id=\"wp-comment-cookies-consent\" name=\"wp-comment-cookies-consent\" type=\"checkbox\" value=\"yes\"\/> <label for=\"wp-comment-cookies-consent\">Save my name, email, and website in this browser for the next time I comment.<\/label><\/p>\n<p class=\"form-submit\"><input class=\"submit\" id=\"comment-submit\" name=\"submit\" type=\"submit\" value=\"Send\"\/> <input id=\"comment_post_ID\" name=\"comment_post_ID\" type=\"hidden\" value=\"10058\"\/> <input id=\"comment_parent\" name=\"comment_parent\" type=\"hidden\" value=\"0\"\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SECAP, an entity from the Ministry of Finance, invited industry representatives to a seminar on sports betting in Brazil.
