Crown corruption highlights urgent need for donations reform

The Greens say that proper regulation of the gambling industry requires a ban on the industry donating to political parties.

Western Australian Greens spokesperson on Gambling Alison Xamon said:

“Since 2012-13, more than half of all money donated by Crown to political parties in Australia has come to parties in WA.

“Crown has spent nearly $800,000 in WA alone, with WA Labor raking in $312,430 and the WA Liberals taking $437,509.

RACING AND WAGERING WESTERN AUSTRALIA — GREYHOUND RACING INDUSTRY

3393.  Hon Alison Xamon to the minister representing the Minister for Racing and Gaming:

I refer to the Greyhound racing elements of Racing and Wagering Western Australia (RWWA), and I ask, does the RWWA have a profit and loss statement for greyhound racing alone:

(a) if yes, will the Minister please table this document for the 2019–20 year?

Hon Alannah MacTiernan replied:

RWWA does not prepare a profit and loss statement for greyhound racing alone.
