The wagering tax for the WA TAB attributable to the Greyhound code for the last five years is:
FY16
FY17
FY18
FY19
FY20
11 175 287
11 131 916
11 828 067
11 778 384
11 865 692
These are the amounts attributed to Greyhound racing as per Racing and Wagering Western Australia financials.
Note: At the introduction of Point Of Consumption Tax in Vic/NSW/Tas/Qld/ACT, the taxes were not assigned to the Greyhound code for the initial 12 months from January 2019. These amounts are not material to the total wagering taxes paid.
