I am working on the Betting (Amendment) Bill 2013 which is before the House. Does Mr. Sheridan know if many of the people who are participating in moneylending have gambling debts? There was an observation that there was indebtedness and that moneylending was propping up other debts. Would any of that be moneylending without being gambling related debts?
