A change is imminent at the German Lotto and Totoblock (DLTB): From January 1, 2022, Toto-Lotto Niedersachsen GmbH will take over the lead in the DLTB. After a three-year term of office, the previously lead company, Lotto Rheinland-Pfalz GmbH, represented by its managing director Jürgen Häfner, will give up its chairmanship on December 31, 2021. The block partner of the DLTB, Toto-Lotto Niedersachsen GmbH with its two managing directors Axel Holthaus and Sven Osthoff, was unanimously elected as the following company at the meeting of the management boards.

"We are very happy about the trust that all block partners have placed in us in Toto-Lotto Niedersachsen GmbH and its workforce. We will perform our tasks in the DLTB with commitment and responsibility and continue the successful term of office of Lotto Rhineland-Palatinate," explains the Lower Saxony Lotto managing director Axel Holthaus.

"Against the background of the State Treaty on the New Regulation of Gaming in Germany 2021 (GlüStV 2021), which will come into force on July 1, 2021, an essential task will be to strengthen the DLTB's pooled lotteries in an increasingly digital environment," continues Holthaus.

Managing Director Sven Osthoff adds: "We are looking forward to being able to bring our digital expertise to the DLTB even more in the future. It is important to keep the common good-oriented lottery principle sustainable through digital transformation."

One of the 16 member societies will be in charge of the DLTB for three years. It coordinates the cooperation of the lottery companies affiliated with the DLTB and informs the public about fundamental matters. As the lead company, Toto-Lotto Niedersachsen GmbH will be the voice of the German Lotto and Totoblock from the beginning of 2022 to the end of 2024.
