Alderney Island has just adopted a new licensing scheme for gambling operators
This new legislation should put the State of Alderney in position to build relationships with the EU and others countries.

This transparency is recognized by the OECD who has put Guernsey and Alderney on a white list.
The process of applying for a licence and information regarding the licensees and player protection are managed by the Alderney Gambling Control Commission (AGCC). The new licensing scheme will be available for operators at the very beginning of January 2010.

The government approach is clearly to open the way to a stronger cooperation between Alderney and the UE in the gaming sector.
