ATGs grava naivitet gällande risken för korruption

39. The reason the investigation team feels it appropriate to raise this issue is should ATG have in place all the necessary ‘checks and balances’ outlined in this report they will count for little if there is corruption within the sport that is not being adequately addressed. Given the large amount of money that is at stake in Swedish trotting (the V75) manipulation of the sporting event is a very real possibility.
ATG will eventually have in place a betting monitoring system that has the ability to identify suspicious betting on trotting in Sweden which when it happens may be the result of corruption in the sport. If the sport does not have the expertise or resources to deal with it then the problems will in the very least persist and in the more worryingly cause long run damage to the reputation of the sport.

Detta är ett utdrag från Paul Scotney utredning av ATG på uppdrag av Lotteriinspektionen. Det är frapperande hur undermålig han anser ATGs säkerhetssystem är, samt även hur liten insikt och påverkan Lotteriinspektionen har inom hästsporten, vilket inte är internationell praxis.

One area that the investigation team was left unsighted on was the strength of the relationship between ATG, the Swedish Trotting Association and the Swedish Jockey Club. Whilst it was not specifically a part of our remit to look into this area (or sufficient time) the investigation team makes the following observations based on their extensive experience of dealing with betting-related corruption in sport. The experience of other countries (like Great Britain and the US) is that it is vital there exists a robust relationship between betting operators and sport; this includes written protocols around information sharing when suspicious betting activity occurs. It is also important that the sport in question has the right structures and processes in place to investigate any possible corruption that is separate and complementary to what the police may do.
37. It was a surprise to the investigation team that the SGA does not have any influence over either the Swedish Trotting Association or the Swedish Jockey Club. This is not the case in other countries, for example the Gambling Commission in Great Britain has a central role in ensuring both the betting operators (including the privately owned tote) and the sport cooperates when there is any suggestion of corruption.
