"Lotteriinspektionen vill att Bolaget ska ge Spelinspektionen möjlighhet att genomföra kontroller.

Is there a difference between Lotteriinspektionen och Spelinspektionen?

(new) Swedish Gambling Authority
Explanation:
No and yes. It seems Lotteriinspektionen is reformed as Spelinspektionen.
The law SFS no: 2007:756 establishes purpose and scope of Lotteriinspektionen. This law is cancelled from January 1, 2019, when it is superceded by the law SFS no: 2018:1476 which establishes the purpose and scope of Spelinspektionen.
Lotteriinspektionen is officially in English The Swedish Gambling Authority.
I doubt there is another established English name for the new Spelinspektionen, and as likely as not will just keep the old name. So I guess you can run with the old name, and just add "new" to distinguish between them.
