It’s all coming to a head today on gambling with members of the Coalition meeting late yesterday evening to discuss a range of amendments to the government’s bill to tackle online wagering advertising.
Guardian Australia understands there are 15 negotiated reforms that have been agreed to, including for a three-year review of the legislation. But they need final sign off by each party which should happen later this morning when both the Coalition and government party rooms meet.
Yesterday the government announced it would create a new single-service opt-out register for gambling ads – an idea similar to the Do Not Call register for spam calls.
