Poland will introduce laws legalising online gaming which will include new regulations to license and tax companies according to a recent report.

The country has decided to change the current laws to 'meet the needs of the growing industry', according to sources, and will be implemented by September.

Sources also noted that Poland's decision follows the EU ruling for online gambling in the Placanica case by the European Court of Justice in March, 2007.The court ruled that Italy cannot use criminal law to ban gambling companies licensed in another EU nation from taking bets in Italy.
