Premier Jay Weatherill waters down gambling ads ban The Northern Territory Racing Commission will supply stewards with Tom Waterhouse's betting records from Saturday's All Aged Stakes. PREMIER Jay Weatherill says betting advertisements will be allowed during sporting broadcasts and new regulations will only ban enticements to gamble on games that are already underway. Mr Weatherill this morning moved to clarify earlier comments where he indicated all gambling advertising would be banned from siren to siren during broadcasts. In an early morning interview on ABC Radio, Mr Weatherill was asked if he was "banning all betting advertising during sports" and answered: "Once the game's started, yes." Asked if betting advertisements that didn't mention live odds would be banned, Mr Weatherill said "We are going to ban things which have the effect of advertising live odds and we've got a very broad definition." Mr Weatherill later said bans would be limited to advertising that urged betting on matches being played. On Five AA Radio, he said: "What we're actually banning is the advertisement of live odds in a broadcast." If you're sitting there watching television, then once the game starts you won't have somebody publishing the live odds and you won't have somebody asking you to bet or encouraging you in any way to actually get a bet on. Mr Weatherill yesterday said the changes , which will have national implications for broadcasters and teams, were a bid to stop young men being conditioned that gambling was a natural part of sport. Opposition gambling spokesman Iain Evans said Mr Weatherill had "overspruiked" a ban on betting that he didn't even understand. "The Premier is not across the detail of his own policy," he said. Mr Evans said a ban on all gambling advertising would cause problems with sporting team's sponsorship, such as the Adelaide Casino sponsoring the Adelaide Crows and Centrebet sponsoring St Kilda in the AFL. "What is going to happen to the national broadcasts?" he said. Adelaide Crows have SkyCity (Casino) on their shorts, St Kilda have Centrebet on their guernseys so are you going to get a blacked out Adelaide Crows player tackling a blacked out At Kilda player and that's going to be the nature of the broadcast. Mr Evans said the state Liberal party supported "the principle of banning live odds during games in play" but even that could cause problems if not properly implemented. What does it mean for the AFL television into South Australia, what does it mean for the Rugby ... IPL cricket ... how is this going to work?" he said. Until the Premier can explain to South Australia what his model is ... and how its going to work we support the federal model because that's been consulted over two years.
