3392. Hon Alison Xamon to the minister representing the Minister for Racing and Gaming:
I refer to the wagering tax and I ask if there is a wagering tax figure for each of the last five financial years solely for greyhound racing?
Hon Alannah MacTiernan replied:
The wagering tax for the WA TAB attributable to the Greyhound code for the last five years is:
|
FY16 |
FY17 |
FY18 |
FY19 |
FY20 |
|
11 175 287 |
11 131 916 |
11 828 067 |
11 778 384 |
11 865 692 |
These are the amounts attributed to Greyhound racing as per Racing and Wagering Western Australia financials.
Note: At the introduction of Point Of Consumption Tax in Vic/NSW/Tas/Qld/ACT, the taxes were not assigned to the Greyhound code for the initial 12 months from January 2019. These amounts are not material to the total wagering taxes paid.
