Sweden is cracking down on “tax cheats” and their primary focus will be online poker players, affiliates and operators, not to mention other online gambling related activities. Sweden is a hot bed in the online gambling industry, playing host to some of the leading software providers and poker networks including the national state owned Svenka Spel.

A report filed by Poker News dispels the idea that Sweden is not targeting individual online poker players in its tax probe.

Last summer, Sweden’s tax board Skatteverket announced that it was going to start targeting online poker sites and affiliates for tax evasion. At the time, Dag Hardyson, national project leader for the tax board’s Internet unit, said they weren’t interested in going after poker players; only the companies that provided online poker services or those that made money by directing players to those sites would be targeted. But reports this week identified that poker players are among those now facing back taxes and penalties. Since launching their probe, Skatteverket has identified 47 cases of suspected tax evasion, representing €44.5 million in undeclared income, with €5 million purportedly attributed to individual poker players.

Meanwhile, The European Commission has launched investigations into both Swedish and German prohibitions on internet gambling. The Commission has requested further information from the countries over concerns that they restrict free trade.

The Commission has said that in Sweden’s case it cannot allow betting in physical casinos or online in a state monopoly and at the same time bar foreign operators from offering online gambling.

“A Member State cannot invoke the need to restrict its citizens’ access to betting services if at the same time it incites and encourages them to participate in state lotteries, games of chance or betting which benefits the state’s finances,” said a Commission statement.

The Commission is conducting an enquiry into whether Sweden’s rules on poker games and tournaments are consistent with EU laws on free trade. The country has two months in which to respond to the request for information.

“[The request does not] have any implications for the liberalisation of the market for gambling services generally, or for the entitlement of Member States to seek to protect the general interest, so long as this is done in a manner consistent with EU law i.e. that any measures are necessary, proportionate and non-discriminatory,” said the Commission. “The Commission hopes that the answer it receives will lead to an early and satisfactory resolution of the matter.”

According to Salem Street Business Association President Betsy Lister, the SSBA will merge with the Medford Chamber of Commerce at the beginning of the year.

The SSBA will take a final vote on the proposal at its September 26 meeting. The idea for the merger was first floated in the early summer when it became apparent that no one could take on the responsibilities of running the organization once Lister’s term ended.

Both the Chamber and SSBA see the merger as a win-win for Medford’s business community. Though there is already overlap between the two groups in members and leadership, combining forces will increase the Chamber’s membership by 100 and will broaden the business districts it represents.

The SSBA has disbursed its funds among several local and national charities, including the Medford Family Network, Medford Saving Lives, Friends of Francis, Shelter, Inc., and the Buddy Coholan Center. The group will also fund two scholarships- a $1,000 one for the next two years and the Tom Convery Scholarship, a $1,500 award for a student pursuing a career in education, for the next five years.
