My question was about gambling advertising. This young man's family say that he was hounded to death by Sportsbet through an endless stream of advertising and direct inducements like bonus bets. This morning Kate said, 'I really feel that those inducements made him feel the only way out was to end his life.' Minister, if you are not going to talk about gambling advertising, and clearly you are not going for a full gambling ad ban, can you at least confirm to us that the government will ban online gambling inducements?
