Question

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?

Answered on 26 November 2020

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.
