TRACKSIDE — ELECTRONIC GAMING
751. Dr M.D. NAHAN to the Premier:
I have a supplementary question. The Premier's
comments were about Trackside and not gaming machines. Notwithstanding that
there were, for example, 500 races that punters could bet on at Western Australian
TABs last Saturday and more than 300 races today, can the Premier confirm that
there will be 2 400 additional betting opportunities each day if Trackside is
introduced?

No, I cannot confirm that. What will be on offer is an
additional screen in a TAB agency that allows people who go into a TAB agency
who want to bet on a horserace to bet on a horserace.

The SPEAKER : Member for Girrawheen, I call you to
order for the first time.
