The Prime Minister continues to dodge any meaningful discussion on gambling harm minimisation measures after avoiding answering my question on poker machine reform during Question Time today.
The PM has acknowledged publicly that poker machine addiction is the most prevalent form of gambling addiction, that is an undeniable fact. Then why doesn’t the Federal Government use the Corporations Act and tax powers to implement meaningful harm minimisation measures on the machines?
The Labor Party continues to give us no reason to believe they aren’t in the pockets of the predatory gambling companies.
Please see my full question and response from the Prime Minister in the above video.
