Adjourned debate on second reading.

The Hon. M.J. ELLIOTT: I indicate that the Democrats support the Bill, which has come about because there has been increasing competition among the States and the various TABs, and there is a need to have some flexibility in terms of the commission rates so that South Australia can offer competitive rates and not lose market share. I have consulted with a number of people throughout the racing industry and others associated with the TAB, and no-one has raised any objections. On that basis, the Democrats are prepared to support the Bill.
