CANBERRA – WE NEED TO TALK

ABOUT OUR GAMBLING PROBLEM

Gambling harm from pokies impacts our whole community.

Help us create change to protect our community from gambling harm.

HERE’S THE PROBLEM

COST TO THE COMMUNITY

Gambling harm costs the Canberra community $214 million every year

LAX REGULATIONS

ACT has the most dangerous poker machines in Australia due to lax regulations.

TOO MANY VENUES

Think there’s only one casino in Canberra? Think again.

…BUT THERE IS A SOLUTION

There are seven changes the ACT Government can make to protect Canberrans from gambling harm.

Stronger public health approach to reducing harm across all demographics

Government support for club diversification to drive reduction in EGM licenses

Improve transparency about the harm caused by individual gambling venues

Implement Australia’s safest carded gaming, ensuring gambling venues take responsibility for protecting vulnerable people

Safer gambling venue hours

Fund a gambling harm advocacy peak
