Gambling Revenue

In reply to Mr TEAGUE (Heysen) (25 June 2024). (Estimates Committee B)

The Hon. A. MICHAELS (Enfield—Minister for Small and Family Business, Minister for Consumer and Business Affairs, Minister for Arts): I have been advised of the following:

The Liquor and Gambling Commissioner publishes data regarding gaming machine revenue from hotels and clubs on the Consumer and Business Services (CBS) website at the end of each quarter. This data includes the amount of gaming revenue and tax payable for each month in that quarter.

Additionally, following the conclusion of the financial year, the commissioner makes available net gaming machine revenue data (NGR) by local government area. Section 20 of the Gambling Administration Act 2019 limits the commissioner to only provide this data if the statistics have been aggregated by council area. If there are less than 3 premises in a particular council area, the commissioner must group that data together with an adjoining council to maintain commercial in confidence information relating to the individual earnings of a particular venue.
