Queensland LNP promises to increase pokies cap for clubs with more than two premises
https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-07-02/pokies-cap-on-queensland-clubs-lnp-policy/104043318
The state opposition will take the policy to the looming Queensland election, arguing an increase to the cap will throw a "lifeline" to smaller clubs facing closure.
In short:
- Queensland's LNP opposition wants to increase the cap on poker machines that can operate at clubs with more than two premises.
- The gaming machine cap for a club licensee with three or more sites is 500, but the LNP wants to lift that to 700.
What's next?
- The LNP is taking the policy to the looming October state election, arguing that the proposal would benefit smaller clubs facing closure.
... Don't these statements contradict each other?
-> Applies only to businesses with more than two premises
-> benefits "smaller clubs"
