Ciudad Real Treasury opens sanctioning proceedings for game CR 15-2026

The Provincial Delegation of Finance, Public Administrations and Digital Transformation of Ciudad Real has agreed to initiate sanctioning proceedings CR 15-2026 regarding gambling, according to the notification dated September 30, 2026, published in the Official Gazette of Castilla-La Mancha (DOCM) on October 7, 2026. The announcement publicizes the initiation agreement as personal notification to the interested party, identified by NIF 6271157T, proved unsuccessful. The processing corresponds to the Gambling Unit of the aforementioned provincial delegation.

The proceedings fall under the sanctioning power of the Ministry of Finance, Public Administrations and Digital Transformation of the Regional Government of Castilla-La Mancha in the field of gambling and betting, a matter whose inspection and control correspond to the provincial delegations of Finance. The agreement appears in section III of the bulletin, dedicated to other provisions and acts, with the official reference 2026/7154 and on page 34379.

The publication is not the result of an editorial decision, but a mandatory procedure: the administration resorts to the bulletin when it has been unable to deliver the resolution by hand to the interested party. The text expressly invokes articles 42, 44, and 46 of Law 39/2015, of October 1, on the Common Administrative Procedure of Public Administrations (BOE no. 236, of October 2, 2015), which enable notification via insertion in the Official State Gazette and the Official Gazette of Castilla-La Mancha.

A single interested party and a proceeding in the initial phase

The announcement identifies a single procedure and a single recipient. The published data are as follows:

• File: sanctioning procedure CR 15-2026.
• Interested party: NIF 6271157T.
• Notified concept: agreement to initiate sanctioning proceedings.
• Responsible body: Gambling Unit of the Provincial Delegation of Finance, Public Administrations and Digital Transformation of Ciudad Real.
• Official reference: 2026/7154.

This is, therefore, the start of the procedure and not a final sanctioning resolution: the initiation agreement opens the investigation phase, during which the affected person may present arguments and provide evidence before a resolution is issued.

Ten business days to review the full text

The interested party has a period of ten business days, counting from the day following the publication of the notification, to become aware of the full text of the resolution. Access is provided at the offices of the Provincial Delegation of Finance, Public Administrations and Digital Transformation of Ciudad Real, located at Paloma Street, number 17, from 9:00 to 14:00 hours.

The document is dated in Ciudad Real on September 30, 2026, and is signed by the General Secretary, by delegation of the Resolution of 09/18/2015 (DOCM no. 18, of September 25), and the Provincial Delegate, Inmaculada Jiménez Serrano.

Impact for the gaming sector in the province

The publication in the DOCM transforms the agreement into an act with legal effects regarding the interested party and establishes the starting point for the calculation of deadlines, such that any subsequent action by the party under investigation depends on that date. For the gaming and betting sector of the province of Ciudad Real, the announcement confirms that the Gaming Unit maintains active surveillance over compliance with regional regulations on the matter and that sanctioning procedures continue their course through the method of edictal notification when personal communication fails.
