I torsdags förra veckan arrangerade organisationerna för trav- och galoppsporten inom EU konferensen **Hästsport och spel: Har trav och galopp en framtid i Europa?** i Europaparlamentet i Bryssel. Svensk travsport ställer sig bakom den proklamation som togs på mötet och som kräver ett regelverk som garanterar arrangörens rätt till en rimlig del av spelet. Proklamationen kan läsas i sin helhet nedan: **_We call the European Parliament, the Council and the Commission, to recognize urgently the need for a clear and coherent legal and regulatory framework, guaranteeing:_****_

1\. A fair return from betting to the racing on which it is promoted or offered;  
2\. The protection of the future integrity of the sport.

We call on the European Commission to develop a policy to achieve this, in consultation with the European horseracing organizations.

It is necessary that, in conformity with the principle of subsidiarity, Member States have a European legal framework on betting, which will allow them to exercise their own competence in conformity with EU law.
