So the government is setting up a regime where they're asking the parliament to pass a law and they're telling the Australian people these are the toughest laws ever on gambling, and yet the Commonwealth has no power over the licence of a gambling company? What on earth happens when these gambling companies continue to contravene and break the law? You have riddled yourselves useless, impotent. Why hasn't the government moved on the recommendation for a national regulator? Why has the government refused to give itself the power to hold the gambling companies to account and to be able to remove their licences?
