We have developed a position statement which provides evidence-based recommendations to prevent and reduce electronic gambling machine (EGM) related harm.
As a community health service we have a duty to encourage early intervention and treatment as well as the primary prevention of gambling.
You can read our position statement on EGMs (also known as poker machines or ‘pokies’) here. This is supported by the attached evidence.
