Call on the NT Government to Protect People from Gambling Harm
Australians deserve gambling laws that put people’s safety and wellbeing ahead of gambling industry profits.
Australians lose more to gambling than any other country in the world, but our current laws allow harmful industry practices to continue, and people are paying the price.
That's why I am introducing a Bill to Parliament that will strengthen safeguards, reduce gambling harm and better protect families and communities.

Read the draft Bill and supporting document
The NT is the quasi national regulator for online gambling in Australia because we have the weakest regulations and the lowest taxes. We can lead the way in protecting not only Territorians but all Australians.
But when I asked the Government to take stronger action to reduce gambling harm, they voted no.
That's why I am introducing a Bill to Parliament that will strengthen safeguards, reduce gambling harm and better protect families and communities.
The CLP made some changes to our gambling laws earlier this year but these changes fell far short of what Territorians have told us they want to see to tackle gambling harm.
My Bill will introduce stronger protections for young people, ban harmful inducements designed to encourage gambling, improve transparency, and hold the gambling industry accountable for the harm it causes.
Gambling should never come at the expense of a person's well being, their family's financial security, or their future.
