Responsible Gambling Code of Practice
On 29 May 2002, the Queensland Responsible Gambling Code of Practice was launched.
The Code provides a whole-of-industry approach to the promotion and provision of responsible gambling.
The Code of Practice recognises the importance of customers' wellbeing with a focus on minimising the potential harm from gambling. It commits the gambling industry to implement responsible gambling practices.
These practices are organised into the following categories:
-
provision of information
-
interaction with customers and community
-
exclusion provisions
-
physical environment
-
financial transactions
-
advertising and promotions.
The Code of Practice is a key component of the Queensland Responsible Gambling Strategy developed by the Queensland Government.
The Code has been developed by the Responsible Gambling Advisory Committee. In developing the Code of Practice, the Advisory Committee has consulted extensively with key stakeholders within and outside the gambling industry as well as the broader community.
