根据对赌博法规的可恶审核，新南威尔士州将其扑克机的数量减少到全国平均水平，这也发现政府没有目标来减少赌博伤害，并且不知道其政策是否有效。
在新南威尔士州审计的报告中，在周四发布了足够的报道，并没有提出足够的报道。立法变化，例如游戏室标牌，激励场地专注于合规性而不是识别和预防伤害。

NSW had 87,749 poker machines operating across 2000 venues in 2023-24, and they generated利润为84亿美元，审计长将其作为对顾客损失的最佳度量。他们占了在澳大利亚运营的一半机器。
该报告发现，由于引入了法律以减少2001年的Pokies数量，因此机器的数量减少了13,758，每年平均每年598年。发现。
明尼斯政府最近将立法的扑克机股份从99,000降低至95,739，但这仍然高于运营数量。 The total number of machines in operation has actually increased in each of the last two financial years.
The Minns government had produced a series of strategy and policy documents over the last two years, but its compliance programs had not been evaluated and its enforcement activities were limited by staff resources, with just 12 inspectors – all of them based in Greater Sydney.
“The [government’s] strategy for regulating gaming machines is not based on a clear understanding of current报告发现。
“结果，[创意产业，旅游业，酒店和体育运动]的部门不知道其监管策略是否有效地使赌博伤害最小化。 data-testid =“文章 - 底部”>
其他证据 - 包括2023 - 24年对赌徒软件无机的电话增加了8.5％，并且在过去三年中的每一个中增加了赌博机损失 - 建议赌博伤害并没有减少。在2025年的前90天。
审计长的报告建议实施危害最小化目标，并越来越重视对受到影响最大的监管改进的重点，例如员工遵守负责任的赌博行为和与深夜开放的场地运作。have exemptions to the mandatory shutdown period from 4am to 10am, and 36 venues have “hardship” provisions that allow them to be exempted from harm minimisation measures.
These were granted 20 years ago and the Independent Liquor and Gaming Authority has not reviewed them since.
The auditor-general recommended that ILGA periodically review the licence conditions of venues in the highest-risk areas and make amendments where required. Poker machine losses were disproportionately concentrated in lower socioeconomic areas.
The report comes as the NSW government has also dropped a plan to end tax concessions at casino-style clubs, which cost NSW residents $964 million in foregone tax income in 2023-24, according to the latest budget papers.
Clubs do not have to pay any tax on gambling profits under $1 million, and only 28.4 per cent tax on gambling profits under $20 million, compared to the 50 per cent tax on pubs’ gambling profits.
Opposition leader Mark Speakman said the report showed that the government had been passive on gambling reform.
“The auditor-general’s report shows harm is rising, inspections aren’t happening, and Labor has broken every promise it made,” Speakman said.
LoadingBut Gaming Minister David哈里斯说，过去两年中，政府实施了比过去12年的自由党所做的更全面的赌博改革。他说，他的部门和伊尔加接受了报告中提出的建议。新南威尔士州政府一直坐在七个月的赌博改革小组的建议下。
“现在是黑白的，”卡梅伦说。 “新南威尔士州政府几乎没有做任何事情来减少赌博危害，而俱乐部和酒店却在数十亿美元的袋装中。”
