Interactive Gambling Amendment (Gambling Reform) Bill 2026

Ms WELLS (Lilley—Minister for Sport and Minister for Communications) (13:18): I thank the member for his amendment. As I said in my second reading speech, we have significant concerns about the appropriateness of this model. When in government, the coalition also took action to ban what was then the principal form of access to foreign lotteries, and they did that in 2018.

I also understand that, while the business that the member is concerned about does offer foreign lotteries, which will no longer be permitted, it also offers Australian lotteries, and those domestic lotteries will be unaffected by the changes that we are making. The SPEAKER: The question is that the amendments moved by the honourable member for McPherson be agreed to.
