    The Government's announced 81-million dollars to go into minimising gambling harm

    The Government's announced 81-million dollars to go into minimising gambling harm


    A refreshed strategy will boost access to support, and strengthen prevention and early intervention.

    Mental Health Minister Matt Doocey says getting support is a big barrier - and the plan includes increasing the workforce.

    It'll create 18 clinical internships.

    The service will be funded via new levy regulations - for gaming machine operators, casinos, the TAB, and Lotto.
