AS LOSSES WERE NOT IN CONTEMPLATION WHEN AGREEMENTS WITH NSW AND VICTORIA WERE NEGOTIATED, THEY DO NOT CONTAIN SPECIFIC MENTION OF HOW LOSSES WOULD BE HANDLED, BEYOND REDUCING THE TERRITORYS SHARE OF NET REVENUE TO NIL. THE A.C.T.S ANNUAL REVENUE FROM INSTANT LOTTERIES OF APPROXIMATELY $1.72 MILLION IS THEREFORE AT RISK.

IN ADDITION, MADAM SPEAKER, THE OPPORTUNITY HAS BEEN TAKEN TO REMOVE SEXIST LANGUAGE AND UPDATE THE DRAFTING STYLE OF THE LOTTERIES ACT 1964.

MADAM SPEAKER, THIS BILL PROPOSES RETROSPECTIVE AMENDMENTS TO THE ACT, IN LINE WITH CHANGES MADE OR PROPOSED IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS, TO CONFIRM THAT TO WIN AN INSTANT SCRATCH LOTTERY GAME IT IS NECESSARY TO FIND THREE OF THE SAME SYMBOL.
