The Malta Gaming Authority (MGA) is aware of public statements made by an individual claiming responsibility for unauthorised access to one of the Authority’s systems and making a series of allegations and threats in that context.
The MGA condemns any unauthorised access to its systems and any extraction, handling or dissemination of data obtained through such activity. Such conduct is unacceptable and incompatible with lawful engagement with public institutions and established governance frameworks.
The Authority operates within a robust legal and regulatory framework and carries out its statutory functions with integrity, independence and accountability. Allegations made in the context of unauthorised system access are unsubstantiated and do not undermine the MGA’s role as a regulator committed to transparency, due process and the rule of law.
For more than two decades, the MGA has operated within established legal and governance frameworks, and will continue to do so. Ensuring that the Authority’s work, and the industry it regulates, operate with integrity and accountability is paramount.
