Welcome to our December 2013 Gambling Law and Regulation Newsletter.
In this Newsletter, we cover some of the developments that have taken place throughout the last few months of 2013.

Harm minimisation has been a constant theme across the gambling space throughout 2013. The past few months have been no exception and each of the following developments is covered in this Newsletter:

  • In November 2013, the Advertising Standards Board upheld a complaint that a television commercial intended to discourage teenagers from gambling had the opposite effect – that is, it promoted sports betting to young children.
  • The Federal Government has recently announced that it would repeal poker machine reform laws introduced by the previous government in respect of voluntary pre-commitment.
