Industry information
For most people, gambling is an enjoyable leisure and entertainment activity. For some, however, gambling can have negative impacts. In the long term, benefits to the gambling industry can be enhanced and safeguarded only by minimising harm to consumers and the community as a whole.
In Queensland, the challenge of developing responsible gambling policy and practice is shared through a partnership between the community, gambling industry and the Queensland Government.
Since 2002, the Queensland Office of Liquor, Gaming and Racing conducts a survey which looks at the dynamics of the Queensland club and hotel gaming machine industry. These surveys provide an overview of club and hotel services, employment, revenue and expenditure, building projects, community support and responsible gambling practices.
