The new National self-exclusion system is scheduled to go live from January 1, 2019 along with the Lotteriinspektionen name change to Spelinspektionen.

It will comprise various Government agencies, including representatives of the Public Prosecutor, the Police Office and Government Offices such as the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Social Affairs, along with relevant sports federations, trade organisations and the like.
