<p> Venue Exclusions: Making it Work- The Mainland View</p><p>National Gambling Services Provider Meeting 1 April 09</p><p>Abstract Aotearoa's Gambling Act 2003 has been a unique approach to addressing Gambling-related Harm, as it takes a Public Health Approach to Problem Gambling and allows for a range of interventions and strategies that are difficult to instigate elsewhere in the world. Being able to provide effective and appropriate interventions for those affected by Problem Gambling requires that the main players – the regulators, the appellant body, the industry and the organizers and providers of Problem Gambling Services form some sort of “common ground”. That is, a degree of involvement and collaboration between all the parties. </p><p>This workshop will be presented by five providers who have experience in the area of Exclusion Orders. It will include:  An introduction to the law and the changes contemplated in Gambling Act review Bill and, what this means for providers of Problem Gambling Services  Presentation’s showing how the Exclusion Process has been used in the different areas around the country and,  Interactive discussion around how other services may use the Exclusion Process effectively in their respective areas. </p><p>The Presenters:</p><p>Name/Role Organisation Address Contact Philip Problem 50 Halifax 03 5482230 Townshend, Gambling St [email protected] Research Foundation Nelson Director and 7010 Clinician Matt Te Kahui 50 Halifax Ph: 03 5482230 McMillan, Hauora O St Fax: 03 5482969 Clinician and Ngati Koata Nelson Cell: 021 0226 0819 Public Health Trust 7010 Email: [email protected] Chris The Salvation 160 03 456 0307 Watkins, Army Oasis Crawford [email protected] Counsellor Centre, Street, y.org Dunedin Dunedin PO Box 934 Rose Fraser, The Salvation 29 Camp Counsellor Army Oasis Street Centre, Queenstow Queenstown n Town Centre, Otago 9300 (03) 442 5103 Eru Loach, Nga Kete 66 Yarrow 03 2145260 (w) or 0800 Health Matauranga Street, PO 925242 Promoter Pounamu Trust Box 1749, [email protected] Invercargill 9840</p>
