Message from the CEO

Our joint symposium Tackling Gambling Harm in Australia, co-hosted with the Public Health Association of Australia, was held on Monday 1 May in Adelaide.  It was a pre-preventive health conference event and provided an excellent opportunity to partner with the health sector to bring together more than 100 people to hear from Australia’s leading experts in gambling harm. The symposium provided a focus on finding solutions to address the harm that can and does arise from gambling. The need for gambling harm to be a recognised public health issue underpinned by a national strategy and real investment in prevention, treatment, support and research was a key outcome.

Important and overdue reform including a ban on gambling advertising was given high priority by participants at the symposium. Its high on the Alliance’s list of priorities too.  A huge thank you to those who are making a regular donation of $10 a month to support our End Gambling Ads Campaign!  As the Alliance does not receive state or federal government funding, this support is invaluable in enabling us to do our policy and advocacy work.

ACT MLA Marisa Paterson MLA launched ‘Keep Molonglo Pokie-Free’' in the Canberra community on Tuesday 2 May 2023 - an Australian first! The Alliance for Gambling Reform welcomes Marisa's leadership in making our new local suburbs pokies free.

Other issues highlighted included the urgent need for the national self-exclusion scheme, Betstop! to be implemented as well as the speedy introduction of the ban on credit for online gambling.  We were delighted to see Minister Rishworth’s announcement that legislation for this to occur will be introduced in the spring sitting of parliament. It’s a great step forward in gambling harm reduction.

And on the poker machine front, how ironic that the losses continue to grow in NSW even as the need for a cashless gambling card were playing out as a high priority election issue.  In the last 6 months, the state saw losses of $4.2b rolling off the back of $8b in losses in 2022.  And Victoria posted losses for the one month of March of more than $247 million!  Where do people think this money is coming from? 

Also featured in this newsletter is a short update on casino reform – and another eye watering fine of $30m for Crown…

We partnered with the peak body for the alcohol and other drug sector in a webinar attended by 200 people on the importance of implementing formal standards for AOD and gambling treatment services. What stands out is that while the AOD sector are struggling to maintain standards outlined in their national quality framework, the gambling services sector is yet to have a framework (of any kind!). 

And the ACT is leading on a new proposal by MLA Marisa Paterson for a poker machine free community in a new and developing region of Canberra- Molonglo Valley.  Marisa is calling on Canberrans to pledge their support for a safer community and we strongly support her!

Latest news on our work with councils and our voices also in this newsletter.

Tackling Gambling Harm
in Australia symposium

IMG_2403.jpg

Experts including EM Professor Mike Daube, Dini Soulio, Carol Bennett and Kate Seselja make recommendations in the closing session at the Tackling gambling harm in Australia symposium

On Monday 1 May, The Alliance partnered with the Public Health Association of Australia (PHAA) for the symposium “Social justice meets public health: tackling gambling harm in Australia”.


This was a pre-conference event of the  PHAA Preventative Health Conference and held at the Adelaide Convention Centre as well as virtually.

IMG_8741.HEIC

Rose O'Leary, Carol Bennett from the Alliance met with Connie Bonaros MLC

The event was well-attended by Federal politicians, researchers, lived experience advocates, local government representatives, community health organisations and more which truly highlighted how much interest in the issue is growing and how it is beginning to be recognised as a crucial public health issue.

 

The key takeaways from the conference were:

  • Lived experience needs to be front and centre when it comes to legislative changes to ensure any changes will have the greatest impact on reducing harm

  • Acceptance that, like other harmful products, gambling should be properly regulated

  • The need for a national health response to gambling harm (including prevention, treatment and research) crucial with a call for the Federal Government to create a unit within the Department of Health and Aged Care to address gambling harm and to establish a new, properly resourced national regulator and ombudsman

  • The need for gambling industry donations and lobby interests to be curbed to protect the integrity of governments to act in the public interest

  • Now is the time to implement a mandatory pre-commitment scheme for both online gambling services and poker machines with binding and practical default limits which can only be increased with proof of income.

 

The symposium generated significant media interest as the first national forum on gambling harm. Following the symposium, Alliance for Gambling Reform CEO Carol Bennett and Policy and Advocacy Lead Rose O’Leary met with Connie Bonaros MLC to discuss local gambling harm issues in South Australia.

Poker Machine
Losses

The poker machine losses for New South Wales for the period of June 2022 to December 2022 were published on Anzac Day eve. Not only was this a very unfortunate time to publish such crucial data, but it was also some of the most staggering poker machine losses we have ever seen in Australia’s history.

 

Over $4.2 billion was lost to gambling over a six month period, which has led to over $8 billion of losses in 2022 alone. It highlights the critical need for reforms to support those at risk of, or impacted by, gambling harm. We simply cannot continue with such high losses which have continued to climb not only in NSW but the entire country both on poker machines and via online gambling.

 

The Alliance urges NSW supporters to get in touch with their state MP and stress the importance of gambling reforms such as cashless gambling with mandatory pre-commitment which will have a lasting and significant impact on reducing harm and therefore reducing these losses! Click here to find your local MPs details.

 

Last Friday the poker machine losses for Victoria were also published for March.  Over $247 million was in one month alone! To read more about your local losses click here.

Carol Bennett speaks at the Keep Molongo Pokie-free Launch in the ACT.

On 2 May, ACT MLA Marisa Paterson launched a proposal for a new poker machine free community in a new region being developed in Canberra- Molonglo Valley. 
 

A campaign will run for a month asking residents to pledge their support for a poker machine free community and have conversations around what they would want from a local, pokies-free, community club!

 

It’s a brilliant initiative that we hope will set a precedent for developing safer communities around Australia. You can read our media release here, Marisa’s media release here.

Quality
and accreditation

in the AOD and gambling sectors

2023-04-26 (50).jpg

On Wednesday 26 April, the Alliance and the Australian Alcohol and Other Drugs Council, the peak body for the alcohol and other drug (AOD) sector, co-hosted a workshop focusing on the need for Quality and Accreditation in the AOD and gambling sectors.

Around 200 people from the AOD and gambling services sectors attended the online event to hear about the importance of implementing formal standards for services. The event comes in the wake of several high-profile cases across the country where clients were harmed by under-regulated services.

Speakers at the online event included: Rebecca Lang, CEO, Queensland Network of Alcohol and Other Drug Agencies (QNADA); Jill Rundle, CEO, Western Australian Network of Alcohol and other Drug Agencies (WANADA); Rob Stirling, CEO, Network of Alcohol and other Drugs Agencies (NADA); and Carol Bennett, CEO, The Alliance.

 

While the AOD sector has a poorly implemented national quality framework, there is no national framework of any kind in the gambling sector.

In summary, not only do we need a national strategic approach to gambling harm treatment, but it needs to be integrated into the broader public health system, especially given the potential for comorbidities. It also should be properly evaluated, including providing a lived experience perspective on how accessible and effective the current treatment options are for different groups of gamblers, their families, workplaces and communities.

Our 3 recommendations are:

  1. National Strategy to reduce gambling harm including access to appropriate treatment services, ongoing regular evaluation and improvement of the services available to people seeking help for gambling issues.

  2. Provide all medical and health professionals (including helpline operators) with training in gambling harm reduction and an up to date set of guidelines and referral options.

  3. Provide those seeking help to readily access independent and quality information about gambling harm and services via a national services directory..

Update on casino reform

Casinos continue to be in the spotlight following the many investigations into their businesses. We are yet to know the outcome of the Adelaide SkyCity inquiry due to a coinciding inquiry by AUSTRAC needing to be finalised before the inquiry findings are published and recommendations implemented.

The Alliance continues to meet with and receive updates from the Office of the Special Manager who are overseeing Crown Melbourne. We look forward to seeing their final recommendations to the Victorian Gambling and Casino Control Commission at the end of this year.

 

Crown Casino were fined $30 million last week for its illegal bank cheque processes which allowed people to bank cheques made out to themselves and not the casino. This increased risk of money laundering and extends credit to those who gamble which is illegal on land-based gambling (like poker machines) in Australia due to heighted risk of harm. The Alliance is glad to see the VGCCC take appropriate action! Read more here.

And finally, Star has been in the news recently due to a financial crisis hitting their casinos following the disciplinary action taken against them following various inquiries. You can read more here.

Councils and Supporter Organisations Update

343631651_573262924638389_563611164395189820_n.jpg

The Victorian Local Government Association’s working group on gambling met in April and had a presentation from researchers from Curtin University and Deakin University on a Public Health Approach to Gambling. Council officers and Councillors had many questions on how this research could apply to their approach to preventing harm from gambling at a local government level.

 

The Alliance has been working with a number of councils who are updating their gambling harm prevention policies and some who are creating a policy for the first time. If your council is considering adopting a gambling policy this year, please get in touch with our Councils and Supporters Coordinator, Bec Paterson, as she would love to provide you with advice on current best practices for council policies.

The Australian Bureau of Statistics will release the SEIFA data from the 2021 Census at the end of April, which will give councils the opportunity to consider how the demographics of their local area have changed since 2016. The Alliance suggests it would be good for councils to compare the two data sets and understand how this could impact future applications for venues or additional machines, as well as regional caps and municipal limits set by the Minister.

Please get in touch with Bec if you'd like to discuss this further.

Voices
Update

IMG_2284.jpg

Paul Fung, Anna Bardsley, Scott Wilson, and Kate Seselja presented on the lived experience of gambling harm at the Tackling Gambling Harm in Australia symposium.

The incredible momentum of the last month has seen new people with lived experience of gambling harm emerge to join the chorus of Voices demanding gambling reform. Every single news outlet has written and produced countless important pieces that bring along the community education around gambling harm and our voices give vital insights in those stories.

 

We have also engaged with members of parliament to help bring about important legislative change.
 

We were devastated to hear that the Federal Government has failed to deliver Betstop! – the national self-exclusion register to consumers that are profoundly unprotected from this predatory industry.

 

We will continue our efforts moving forward as we now have a very solid platform to maintain the focus and intensity needed to create meaningful change.

Gambling reforms being rammed through parliament - while kids are being groomed to gamble

Tim Costello, Chief Advocate, Alliance for Gambling Reform

1 July 2026

Last Friday the school children in our nation watched SBS as the Socceroo’s took on Paraguay. The draw was great result and our national cohesion and confidence soared as we entered the next knock out round.

But ten minutes before the start I was horrified to see an extended segment by Bet365 on the odds of player shots including Nestory Ivankunda. Our nation’s kids watched that? Gambling is an adult product like cigarettes but since 2008 it has become so normalized in grooming our kids that we have become immune.

20 August 2026

A 16-year-old reportedly gambled more than $20,000 across Sydney’s Crown and Star casinos over five months using fake ID.

He visited Crown 19 times, reached silver membership status and was even served complimentary alcohol before finally being caught.

Crown has been fined $1.75 million and The Star $500,000.

If casinos can’t identify a teenager after 19 visits, while rewarding him with status and alcohol, how can gambling companies claim they’ll protect young people across gambling apps used by millions?

Our kids deserve real protection from gambling harm - not slogans.

“We Feel Completely Abandoned”

“We Feel Completely Abandoned”

19 August 2026


Alliance Voices Advocate Mark Kempster has condemned the government’s gambling reforms, warning they leave Australians exposed to continued gambling harm.

“We feel completely abandoned by this government. We feel like they don't really care about our lives to be honest.”

Mark says gambling ads and inducements will continue, while the industry remains without a national regulator. He fears the three-year wait before the reforms are reviewed will allow devastating harm to continue.

“I'll keep fighting for it.”

The Alliance will keep pushing for reforms that put people before gambling industry profits.

The tentative deal on gambling advertising reforms does not match the scale of the harm.

The Alliance, as well as several crossbenchers, are pushing for stronger action in line with the Murphy report, including banning inducements, phasing out gambling advertising and establishing a national regulator.

As The Alliance Chief Advocate Tim Costello said: “We got there with tobacco. We will get there but it will be a much longer flight.”

Australians deserve reforms that put public health ahead of gambling industry interests.

A massive missed opportunity on gambling reform

ABC Radio National Hour

18 August 2026

The Alliance Chief Advocate Tim Costello has criticised the government’s proposed reforms for failing to protect children and separate gambling from sport.

“This is a massive missed opportunity. It fails to protect kids, it fails to delink gambling and sport. They were the two things the Prime Minister said his bill would do. And most importantly, it does not even mention a national regulator when we have the greatest losses and harm per capita than anywhere in the world.”

Australia needs stronger action to prevent gambling harm.

Anglican Churches from across Australia are calling for the Murphy Report’s recommendations to be fully implemented to protect young people and families.

“The Murphy recommendations give a sensible and balance blueprint for gambling regulation.

They protect our children and families. They must be implemented in full — there are no excuses for not doing so.

Anglican Churches from around Australia have been meeting in Melbourne and without dissent, we have agreed that the Murphy report should be adopted in full for ‘the welfare and public health of our nation’s young people and other vulnerable persons’.”

Writing in The Guardian, former independent MP and journalist Zoe Daniel argues that Australia’s proposed gambling reforms fall far short of what families need.

Alliance Voices Advocate Mark Kempster told the Senate inquiry:

“I know dozens of examples of what Luke said as well, with the people I’ve worked with. That is a regular occurrence. Those types of things happen across nearly all the major VIP programs that I’ve seen,”

Zoe Daniel’s article highlights the devastating consequences of gambling harm and the urgent need for stronger regulation and accountability.

Have Gambling Companies Offered You or Someone You Know Inducements?

Have Gambling Companies Offered You or Someone You Know Inducements?

The Alliance

7 August 2026

This week’s Senate inquiry into gambling reform heard testimony that gambling companies used inducements including escorts, drugs, exclusive event access and bonus bets disproportionate to a person’s income to keep people gambling.

These practices may not be isolated. If you or someone you know has experienced a gambling company offering similar inducements, your story could help expose harmful industry practices and strengthen the case for reform.

A ‘shiny, dangling carrot’ lured Jesse into gambling. He says Labor’s reform won’t stop others being sucked in

A ‘shiny, dangling carrot’ lured Jesse into gambling. He says Labor’s reform won’t stop others being sucked in

The Guardian

20 August 2026

Jesse placed more than 15,000 gambles worth nearly $1 million. One company gave him $43,700 in bonus gambles in just over two years, alongside free tickets, food and drinks.

VIP managers regularly added bonuses to his account, including when Jesse indicated he was struggling with his gambling. The benefits only disappeared when he stopped gambling.

Now, Jesse fears the government’s reforms will fail to prevent others from being drawn down the same path. He says inducements should have been banned outright, as recommended by the bipartisan Murphy inquiry.

“It would take away the shiny, dangling carrot that lures us in beyond our control,” Jesse says. “For me, that would have been a real sign that people were being put first.”

Alliance Voices Advocate Mark Kempster also warns the reforms “will do absolutely nothing to stop the companies from preying on people”.

Labor’s gambling reforms still fall well short

Labor’s gambling reforms still fall well short

The Guardian

19 August 2026

Three years after Peta Murphy called for a comprehensive ban on gambling advertising and inducements, Labor’s reforms leave major gaps.

Her husband, Rod Glover, said: “The final package falls well short of the Murphy Report recommendations, which remain the benchmark for comprehensive reform.”

The changes will restrict some gambling advertising, but they stop short of the full protections Murphy recommended. Australians, especially children and young people, deserve stronger action against an industry that profits from gambling harm.

The fight for comprehensive reform is not over.

Inaugural lifetime achievement award won by Brisbane campaigner

Inaugural lifetime achievement award won by Brisbane campaigner

The Alliance

19 August 2026

The Alliance has awarded its inaugural Lifetime Achievement award to Brisbane-based campaigner, Janina Anstee, to recognise her decades of advocating for gambling reform.

Ms Anstee has campaigned tirelessly for gambling reform since 1987 after her husband Leslie took his own life after a 40-year gambling addiction that began at age 13 and left the family in debt.

Alliance Chair, Angela Tillmanns presented the award to Ms Anstee to recognise her amazing contribution.

“Her demands for change all those years ago in 1988 closely mirror many of the 31 unanimous recommendations of Parliament's 2023 "Murphy Report" into online gambling harm — meaning Janina was making the case for reform 35 years before Parliament caught up,” Ms Tillmanns said.

Ms Anstee said it was time for the Prime Minister to “pull his head out of the sand”.

The Conversation

18 August 2026

Federal parliament is passing new gambling reforms, including tighter advertising restrictions, stronger opt-out rules and a three-year review. But critics say the package still fails to deliver the comprehensive protections Australians need.

Independent MP Andrew Wilkie warned: “Minor tweaks and piecemeal amendments to this bad bill won’t address the wave of gambling harm washing over this country. It won’t protect children. It won’t break the nexus between gambling and sport. It won’t stop the suicides.”

Australia needs reforms that put people, families and children ahead of gambling industry interests.

The Alliance

18 August 2026

The two major parties have failed to seize the opportunity to protect Australian families from predatory gambling companies, by striking a deal to pass ‘weak’ and ‘timid’ gambling reforms.

The Chief Advocate of the Alliance for Gambling Reform, Tim Costello, said the deal struck between the Albanese Government and the Opposition has blown a golden opportunity for real reforms and instead families and children will still be exposed to harrowing gambling harm.

“The Senate Inquiry into these reforms highlighted shocking cases in which gambling companies were abusing their power, offering illicit drugs, escorts and free luxury accommodation in order to keep people betting – even when their betting was completely out of control,” Rev. Costello said.

“The reforms that will now go through the Federal Parliament are cosmetic over substance and reflect the major party's intent to prioritise power, money and vested interests over the welfare of Australians who lose more to gambling than any other country on the planet on a per capita basis.”

Giving evidence referenced at the Senate inquiry, Tim said:

“He was flown to events from the Gold Coast to Melbourne. He was put up. He was given escorts. He was asked what drugs you like.”

The evidence has intensified pressure on the Federal Government to strengthen gambling reforms and tackle inducements that can keep people gambling despite serious harm.

Australians deserve protections that put people before gambling industry profits.

The Senate inquiry has exposed disturbing allegations about the inducements used to keep gamblers spending.

Former NRL player Luke Bateman testified that, as a 23-year-old, he was flown to race days where VIP managers supplied him with alcohol and cocaine while he gambled away thousands.

The Alliance’s Chief Advocate Tim Costello also accused Tabcorp and Sportsbet of offering drugs and escorts to keep gamblers gambling.

These are serious allegations, and they demand scrutiny. Gambling companies should not be allowed to exploit people through inducements that contribute to gambling harm.

The government must not abandon gambling reform

SBS, The Age

6 August 2026

Alliance Chief Advocate Tim Costello has strongly condemned suggestions the government could walk away from gambling reform rather than negotiate stronger protections.

“That is absolutely shocking if they're seriously considering that. And the public won't wear it.”

Tim says the proposed legislation still allows three gambling ads an hour on free-to-air television and leaves people watching sport on streaming services exposed unless they actively opt out.

The Alliance is calling for meaningful, evidence-based reform, including stronger restrictions on gambling advertising, a ban on inducements and better protection for children and people experiencing gambling harm.

This is a critical opportunity to put public health ahead of gambling industry interests. The government must return to the table and deliver reform that genuinely protects Australian families and communities. https://www.sbs.com.au/news/podcast-episode/rnf-friendless-gambling-reform-bill-faces-uncertain-future/sbouly0le

SUPPORT
to End Gambling Ads

Can you help support the work of the Alliance for just the cost of 2 coffees a month?

Gambling is a rapidly growing public health issue in Australia, and the constant bombardment of gambling ads during live sports broadcasts, as well as on social media platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and online gaming platforms, is a cause for concern. These ads are often targeted towards young people and are placed at times and in places where children and teenagers are most likely to see them.

 

A 13-year-old today doesn't know a world without gambling ads. Online gambling companies were some of the top-spending advertisers in Australia in 2021 with advertising on gambling around $281 million (AdNews, 2022)
