Lázár: Let the tobacco shops to sell lotto and lottery tickets

The leader of the Prime Minister’s Office proposes to let the tobacco shops to sell lotto and lottery tickets. Lázár János initiated the amendment of the tobbacco shop law on Friday. The law was adopted in September.

According to the law, the retail of tobacco products would be a state monopoly from 1 July next year. According to the law, these tobacco shops could only sell tobacco products.

Lázár János would change that. In his law amendment, that he submitted to the Parliament, Lázár János would provide an opportunity to sell lotteries – such as lottery, keno as well as sports bets. (MTI)
