For the Gaming and Wagering Commission, the Gambling Legislation Amendment Act 2024 will considerably enhance the commission’s enforcement powers and create a more rigorous compliance framework.

What will it mean from a sector and community perspective? Here are just a few of the key points:

• Increases penalties across the board, substantially for casino gaming and operations plus common gaming houses.
• Gives the commission the ability to use infringement notices as an alternative to prosecution.
• Paves the way for certain types of interactive gambling service providers whose base of operations is in Western Australia, to be licensed in WA.
