It seems that the effort from the Australian government to address the changes for their online casinos is finally available and accessible to the general public. The review of online casino gambling in Australia was conducted by the government’s Productivity Commission. The results of the report are interesting in some aspects and very predictable in regard to other elements. But most important at this point is that the review comes with some clever and insightful suggestions in regard to how internet casinos can best be regulated so that everyone ends up being satisfied with the system.

The next stage in this elaborate and seemingly endless process for the regulation of online casinos in Australia is for a public hearing phase to take place. This will happen during the months of November and December and the final report will end up being turned in to the federal government by the later days of February of the coming year. That is the suggested timeline for everything to come together at this point in time, but we all know that sometimes things happen and processes hit snags and the timeline gets pushed back.

Just as Representative Barney Frank about that. One of the most compelling and thought-provoking findings from the internet casino gambling regulation report is that the ban that Australia put into effect for online gambling has not been successful or effective at all. Many people who have been following the development of this particular situation would shake their head and smack their forehead: of course it hasn’t been working! It is obvious that Australians are playing more and more on overseas gambling sites to bypass their own domestic ban.
