경륜·경정산업의 발전방안을 위한 경륜·경정법에 관한 고찰

A Study on the Bicycle and Boat Racing Act for Development Plan of Bicycle and Boat Racing Industry

경륜·경정은 사행적 측면도 있지만, 경륜·경정법의 목적규정에서 보듯이 국민의 여가선용과 청소년의 건전육성 및 국민체육진흥을 도모하는 것이므로 경륜·경정을 게임산업, 여가산업 또는 내기 스포츠의 일종이라는 관점에서 접근하였다. 또한 경륜·경정법은 지방제정 확충을 위한 재원을 마련하여 경륜·경정 경기의 수준향상에 이바지하여야 하므로 이와 관련된 경륜·경정법의 장외매장의 축소가 야기하는 문제는 장외매장을 통한 수익의 상당부분이 체육기금에 충당되므로 장외매장의 축소는 체육재정에 심각한 문제를 야기할 우려가 있다. 그리고 ID 카드를 통하여 일일구매 상한액에 대하여 통제하려는 것은 프라이버시 내지 사생활의 비밀을 침해할 우려가 있으며, 다른 불법, 도박이나 해외원정도박 등으로 옮겨가는 부작용이 예상된다. 이와 같은 시각을 바탕으로 본고에서는 경륜·경정산업의 활성화와 발전방안을 위하여 경륜·경정법에 관한 경륜·경정사업의 정책과제, 경륜사업 운영 관리의 기본 방향, 경륜장 및 장외 매장의 공급 방안, 경륜장 시설 이용 확대 방안, 경륜 심판과 경륜선수 양성 및 개선방안 등의 문제점을 고찰하였다.
