51589 (2025). Lemauga Lydia Sosene to the Minister of Internal Affairs: What is the total amount, per year, that will be raised by the 4 percent of the Offshore Gambling Duty that will be ringfenced for community returns, and of this, how much, if any, will be ringfenced for non-sporting, community organisations?

Hon Brooke van Velden: The amount of money returned to the community will vary each year depending on gross gambling revenue from licensed online casino gambling. No decisions have been made on how this funding will be allocated.
