According to the amendments, the State Commission on Gambling becomes a specialized body at the Council of Ministers. The MPs rejected the proposals of the National Front for the Salvation of Bulgaria which envisage that the gambling activities be limited to five-start hotels and large resorts.

There are such texts in the law, but due to legal misconceptions, they turned out to be inoperative.
