The Responsible Gaming Foundation’s aim is to create a wider awareness of the extent, possible causes and consequences of problem gambling in Malta with a view to preventing it and to provide the necessary support and advice to problem gamblers and their dependents in their recovery efforts.
FOUNDATION'S BACKGROUND
The Responsible Gaming Foundation was founded on the 18th February 2014 by the then Parliamentary Secretary for Competitiveness and Economic Growth Edward Zammit Lewis and by the then Social Solidarity Minister Marie-Louise Coleiro Preca. The requirement for an independent Foundation emerged following the debate in Parliament on the amendments of the Lotteries and Other Games Act (Cap.438 of the Laws of Malta) to introduce regulations governing land-based gaming parlours.

SELF-EXCLUSION
Gamblers can self-exclude themselves from casinos, gambling parlours and bingo halls all licensed with the Malta Gaming Authority. Self-exclusion periods vary from 6 months, 1 year, an indefinite period or an auto-renew option. According to the New Gaming Act, if a gambler wants to self-exclude for an indefinite period, the medical certificate is still requested and always bring a valid ID Card.
