I, and also on behalf of Senator Bernardi, move:

That the following matters be referred to the Environment and Communications References Committee for inquiry and report by 14 September 2017:

(a) the participation of Australians in online poker;

(b) the nature and extent of any personal or social harms and benefits arising from participating in online poker; and

(c) whether the current regulatory approach, in particular, the recently amended Interactive Gambling Act 2001, is a reasonable and proportionate response to those harms and benefits.
