RESEARCH, EDUCATION AND TREATMENT FOR PROBLEM GAMBLERS

According to the Government, the rate of problem gambling is 0.2 per cent and has been stable for the last 20 years. However, one problem gambler is one too many.

While much is being done by recognised treatment providers, we recognise that a broader range of treatment services may be required.

To this end, we have committed to work constructively with national stakeholders and experts as they undertake an essential and comprehensive needs assessment.
