11573 (2025). Benjamin Doyle to the Minister of Internal Affairs: What is the estimated value, if any, of the online casino gambling licenses?

Hon Brooke van Velden: Cabinet has agreed to a two-stage auction as the allocation system for up to 15 licences. This ensures that the value of licenses will be determined by the market. It is unclear how much revenue will be derived from licence auctions at this stage.
