KYIV, August 22 – The issue of understated tax payments for the gambling business in 2022 remains open, companies must pay billions of hryvnias to the budget, Danylo Hetmantsev, head of the parliamentary committee on finance, tax and customs policy, has said.

"The vast majority of operators is already working not in the shadow and pay taxes that are incomparable to last year to the state budget. But we must increase this pressure and constantly monitor their activities for compliance with the law. And making them pay money for 2022 is a matter of principle for me," Hetmantsev said in an interview with Interfax-Ukraine.
