As part of its advocacy efforts to see the complete implementation of the ban on gambling advertising in the near future, the Australian Institute has suggested a 2% levy on gambling revenues.
The institute intends to use the proposed levy as a way to offset the financial losses that media companies will suffer as a direct consequence of the ban, and it will lobby the Green Party to enact the full ban.
After a parliamentary investigation, the proposal for a ban called for a three-year moratorium on all gambling-related advertisements on radio, television, newspapers, and the internet.
