The Romanian Parliament is considering new legislative measures targeting different aspects of the sports sector. One proposal, introduced by Deputy Brian Cristian, seeks to combat match-fixing through the “Anti-Blat Law 2.” This initiative aims to establish a specific offense for the fraudulent manipulation of sports results, carrying prison sentences of two to eight years. The proposed law would extend criminal liability to athletes, coaches, referees, agents, and medical staff, addressing current difficulties in prosecuting sports manipulation under broader corruption or fraud charges.

Separately, Deputy Ciprian Paraschiv and other colleagues have introduced a proposal to redirect funds from the betting industry to sports development. This measure would require sports betting operators to contribute 1% of their gross revenue to national sports federations. These funds are intended to support youth sports, including children, junior sectors, clubs, and competitions, without utilizing the state budget.
