The New South Wales government of Australia plans to implement a new gambling policy reform. All gambling machines in the state will use gambling cards issued by the state government. In other words, cash gambling will not be allowed from next week in New South Wales. This means that the gambler must first register the card and transfer money to the card before it can be used. This approach also means that gamblers' funds will be tracked by records.
There are more than 95,000 gambling machines in NSW, which brings in taxes of 1 billion AUD to the state government each year. From gambling operations to complex gambling machine manufacturing, more than 100,000 jobs are created.
Also, the NSW gambling card will be linked to the "Gambling Self-Management System". Those who are determined to self-discipline can enroll their own names into this system to ban themselves from entering one or a few places that with gambling machines. This method is expected to be a way to control and keep thousands of people out of gambling places.
