Gambling—impact of poker machines in the ACT

Discussion of matter of public importance

MR SPEAKER: I have received letters from Mrs Dunne, Dr Foskey, Mr Gentleman, Mr Mulcahy, Ms Porter, Mr Pratt, Mr Seselja and Mr Smyth proposing that matters of public importance be submitted to the Assembly. In accordance with standing order 79, I have determined that the matter proposed by Mrs Dunne be submitted to the Assembly, namely:

The impact of poker machines in the ACT.

MRS DUNNE (Ginninderra) (3.28): Mr Speaker, a discussion about the impact of poker machines in the ACT is very timely, given the hand-wringing angst of the federal Leader of the Opposition in relation to poker machines and the preposterous and impossible situation that ACT Labor finds itself in in relation to poker machines in the ACT.
