Support for Aussies

The Australian online casino gambling industry is developing rapidly and the announcement from Tasmanian officials about a new licensing and tax structure within Tasmania will only increase the fast pace of development. Tasmania’s new policy that will allow online casinos to pay a one-time fee to the Tasmanian licensing authorities in lieu of paying regular taxes on the gambling company’s revenue. A huge shift in the licensing structure of the Australian gambling industry is expected and online gambling opportunities will be much more rampant throughout Australia. In reaction to the rapid development of an advanced Australian gambling industry, Tasmanian officials have announced a new avenue for problem gamblers to use when seeking help.

The new program is being launched out of Tasmania and “Gambling Help Online” is an internet-based option for seeking help. The idea being that problem gamblers who are used to the anonymity of the online casinos may be more likely to seek help through the internet for their problem gambling tendencies. The service is targeted at Tasmanians with gambling problems and there is a strong hope that the launch of this service will squash some of the controversy that has sprung up throughout Australia concerning Tasmania’s plans to greatly expand the influence of internet gambling on the island.

Tasmania is looking at some rapid growth in the online casino gambling industry over the next year if the planned one-time licensing fee of $250,000 stays true. Internet gambling companies pay as much as 13 percent in tax revenue to the licensing authorities in some countries and there is an expectation that Tasmania’s licensing offer will cause a lot of gambling companies to flock to the Australian state. With increased access and influence of internet gambling on the daily life of Tasmanians there is a hope that the new gambling help site will keep problem gambling numbers from increasingly.
