早在1993年,国务院有关部门就开始筹划制定《彩票管理条例》,但迟迟未能出台。依照目前的形势,可能还是先出台行政法规,再过渡到《彩票法》。但无论怎样,彩票市场亟待立法,使彩票从合理走向合法,这是潜力很大的中国彩票市场健康发展的要求,是体育、福利等公共事业发展的要求,也是维护广大彩民切身利益的要求。 As early as 1993, relevant departments of the State Council began planning the formulation of the “Lottery Regulations,” but it was not yet promulgated. In accordance with the current situation, may still be the first introduction of administrative regulations, and then to the “lottery law.” However, the lottery market urgently needs to legislate to make the lottery from reasonable to legal. This is a potential demand for the healthy development of the lottery market in China. It is also a requirement for the development of public utilities such as sports and welfare as well as the vital interests of the general public.
