ISE: Păcănelele în marile orașe: Mai puțin de jumătate dintre municipiile-reședință le-au interzis complet (hartă interactivă)
After more than six months since the government transferred the responsibility of banning slot machines to local authorities, less than half of county capitals have fully banned them. 41% of municipalities decided to prohibit slot machines, while 39% chose to regulate their activity. Some municipalities have not yet regulated or have had their regulations suspended in court. Bucharest and Botoșani are among those that have not implemented any regulations despite efforts. Local councils are taking steps to address the issue, with various proposals and public consultations underway.
