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) (19:49): That would be the case, but, as I've been reiterating as we've discussed some of these, you do need to look at these reforms in the overall sense.

They're restricting the number of ads that are on during the day from 5 am till 8.30. Obviously, there are the changes that we've made with regard to radio at school drop-off times, the changes that we've made during live sport and the 15 minutes either side, the restrictions on jersey advertising and also stadium naming rights. I think, when you look at these across the whole range of measures that we're taking, they are significant changes.

They are going to reduce the exposure, and that's the aim of this bill and that's the aim of the government.
