The Betting and Racing Regulation and Totalizator Regulation are up for review. They cover gambling harm minimisation measures, counselling services, penalty notice prescriptions, allowable TAB shareholdings, and special exemptions. Hospitality and racing CEO Anthony Keon says the regulations are there to set the standards around the conduct of betting service providers.

The draft Regulations propose to make changes to the law regarding gambling. The consultation will last between 25 May and 22 June. The NSW Government is inviting individuals and stakeholders to have their say.

There are new penalties for gambling offences and for other offences. There are also new restrictions on inducement offers of free entry into a competition and ‘special odds’ offers.
