Australia.- The New South Wales regulator, Liquor & Gaming NSW (L&GNSW<\/strong>), has released the results of a campaign of compliance checks<\/a> on online wagering providers. The campaign focused on responsible gambling training requirements under the National Consumer Protection Framework (NCPF)<\/strong>, administered under the Betting and Racing Act 1998.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The review identified recurring themes of non-compliance<\/strong> among online operators, including initial training not completed within the required timeframe; refresher training not completed annually; training of existing staff not completed by 30 March 2023, and training records being unavailable, not accurate or not up to date.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Failure to comply with these requirements carries a maximum penalty<\/strong> of AU$11,000 for an individual and AU$110,000 for a Corporation under the Act, the regulator warned. It said it would continue to monitor online wagering provider\u2019s compliance and .\u201cmay take escalated enforcement action<\/strong> if any future contraventions are detected.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n
