Tasmanian MPs propose ban on gambling advertising in state-funded venues
Tasmanian MPs Meg Webb and Kristie Johnston plan to introduce a motion this month to prohibit gambling advertising and sponsorship in publicly owned or state-funded venues. The proposed restrictions would cover signage, digital adverts, uniforms and broadcast content; if approved, agencies would have 12 months to implement them and the government would report to parliament after six months.
The proposal could restrict gambling promotion across state-owned and publicly funded venues in Tasmania.
