This will be effective from 10 minutes before the first whistle to 10 minutes after the final whistle.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Additional constraints encompass the prohibition of individuals under the age of 25 from featuring in advertisements, the restriction of gambling inducements in proximity to educational institutions and facilities for youth, and the elimination of such promotions from municipal conveyance systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The recently appointed Minister of Taxation, Ane Halsboe-J\u00f8rgensen, remarked:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI am very pleased that with a broad majority in the Danish Parliament, we are now taking a significant first step to protect children and young people in particular from gambling problems and an overly aggressive gambling market. We are doing this, among other things, with an expanded whistle-to-whistle ban, just as advertising and influencers have made it all too easy to be lured into addiction.
