Interactive Gambling Amendment (Gambling Reform) Bill 2026, National Self-exclusion Register (Cost Recovery Levy) Amendment Bill 2026, Interactive Gambling (Cost Recovery Levy) Bill 2026

Senator CHISHOLM (Queensland—Assistant Minister for Regional Development, Assistant Minister for Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry, Assistant Minister for Resources and Deputy Manager of Government Business in the Senate) (19:29): I'll leave commentary on the Northern Territory commission to the Northern Territory parliament, as they're the ones responsible for its administration.

But what I can say is that this bill provides ACMA with a full suite of enforcement tools for each offence under the legislation. This gives ACMA flexibility in its regulatory posture and in light of the breadth of organisations captured by these measures. We believe they will have the power to take action that will be meaningful and will ensure that the corporations are held to account, including fines of up to $1.82 million for corporations per contravention.
