My question is for the Minister for Communications. The Reverend Tim Costello today described gambling company inducements, such as bonus bets and boosted odds, as 'the most evil, predatory feature of the gambling industry'. The Murphy review recommended the immediate banning of all inducements and inducement advertising, but these recommendations are not included in your exposure draft bill. Will the Albanese government act to outlaw these inducements that drive problem gambling?
