Gaming and Lotteries Legislation
2:30 pm
James Carroll (Fianna Fail)
I appreciate the Minister of State's comprehensive reply. While we can learn from other countries such as Australia, we should be aware that we may also inherit some of their problems. Australia, for example, has a huge problem in that gaming machines have been installed in almost every public house in the country. I hope we will not take the same path. As the Minister of State said, we need strict and appropriate regulation. I look forward to the outcome of the comprehensive review.
