Reports/Media releases
In its annual reports and in media releases, Gespa informs on its activities and on facts and topics of interest related to the large-scale games sector and to gambling in general.
Gespa publishes an annual report on how the cantons use the net revenues from lotteries and sports betting for the benefit of the public. Moreover, Gespa compiles annual statistics on the large- and small-scale games run in accordance with the Gambling Act.

Note
Use of net revenues
The correct use of net revenues lies within the responsibility of the individual cantons. At the same time, the federal act on gambling provides for various measures to ensure transparency in this area. One of these measures is that Gespa must draw up an annual report on the use of net revenues by the cantons.
Gespa therefore has neither the mandate nor the necessary competencies to review individual contributions in the cantons for their legality and, if necessary, to intervene to correct them. Through its annual report, however, Gespa makes a significant contribution to making the various processes in the cantons relating to the use of net revenues visible - and thus enables interested parties to make targeted enquiries among the responsible cantonal authorities.
