That's fair enough. Casinos shouldn't be offering unsolicited credit to players who might have gambling problems, and without so much as a credit check.

This has nothing to do with casinos. Sports bookmakers need to be licensed to operate in Australia. So they can invoke whatever penalties are enforceable under the license conditions if the bookies are not complying.
Sounds good to me, especially the part about requiring bookies to process withdrawals immediately.THE IGA wants new online gambling regulations, including requirements that agencies process withdrawals from gamblers' accounts immediately, disclose spotters' fees and only offer gamblers credit after a due diligence process.
