ABSTRACT Australia has one of the highest rates of expenditure on gambling in the world. This Research Bulletin outlines the growth of the gambling industry in Australia over the last two decades, with particular reference to Queensland. The contentious issue of state and territory governments’ increased reliance on gambling taxes as a source of revenue is also discussed. The various forms of gambling legally available in Queensland (eg casinos, racing, gaming machines etc) are examined. The Bulletin provides background information about each form of gambling in Queensland as well as outlining the relevant legislative and administrative framework. The taxes, fees and charges payable to the government in respect of each form of gambling are examined in detail. Some of the major issues highlighted by the Bulletin include: · Queensland has double the number of casinos in any other Australian state or territory, with casinos operating in Brisbane, the Gold Coast, Townsville and Cairns. The costs and benefits of casinos to the community remains the subject of considerable debate.

    Mr Veverka: Thank you, thank you for your time this morning. Jumbo Interactive is the company behind ozlotteries.com, which is a app and a website that has been around since 2005 selling lottery tickets in Australia, same lottery tickets you buy on the street, Oz Lotto, Powerball, but a whole lot more. We're completely 100% digital. All our tickets are sold via our various devices which include your computer, your phone, even your Apple watch and we've really undergone a lot of growth over the last 15 years. We started this in 2005 and we really represent what lotteries is going to look like in the future. One of our big strengths is that we've really done a good job in appealing to the younger demographic. The little graph you see there on the left, the light blue is the demographic of your typical lottery player, on the right-hand side you've got the 65-plus and on the left-hand side, you've got your 18 to 25s. While the dark blue is our demographic and as you can see, it's very heavily skewed towards the 25 to 35 and 35 to 45 on the left hand side, so being purely digital, people in that age group are more likely to go and buy a lottery ticket online than walk into a store. A lot of benefits with buying tickets online, we have features like auto play, the convenience that it's there 24 hours a day. One of our customers - one of the perks of my job is I get to ring up winners and we had a winner who, on the Central Coast, won about $25 million.
