Backing Our Local Clubs
Robert finished by challenging Treasury’s Michael Coutts-Trotter over the treatment of community clubs compared with casinos and online wagering operators. Clubs support nearly 50,000 jobs, pour money and volunteer hours back into their communities and are forecast to pay more than $1.1 billion in gaming machine tax this year. Treasury Secretary Michael Coutts Trotter accepted Robert’s point that there was room for greater transparency in how the Budget presents the relative tax treatment across the gambling industry. See Robert call for a better deal for clubs.
