Hong Kong authorities have proposed a licensing regime for claw and pinball machines, capping play fees at HK$5 and prizes at HK$300, to tackle rising addiction cases among teenagers. The Home and Youth Affairs Bureau's measures, submitted to the Legislative Council's home affairs panel, include addiction warnings and address proliferation following a 2022 court ruling; lawmakers support the plan while urging industry balance.
