ADJOURNMENT
ACTTAB - Contract with VITAB Ltd
MR BERRY (Minister for Health, Minister for Industrial Relations and Minister for Sport) (10.27): I move:
That the Assembly do now adjourn.
Madam Speaker, during question time today, in response to a question by Mr Kaine about potential inducements being offered by VITAB to Australian punters, I replied that I was advised that the agreement between VITAB Ltd and ACTTAB specifically excluded the capacity for VITAB to offer such inducements. This advice, which was provided by an ACTTAB official, is incorrect and I am advised that in fact the agreement is silent on the issue of inducements. In fact, while ACTTAB maintains commercial agreements with the Northern Territory TAB and VICTAB, both are silent on the issue of inducements. Members should appreciate that the offering of inducements to investors is purely a commercial decision and TABs, like any other business, are not legally precluded from using such methods to attract business.
