Gambling Expenditure StatisticsThe following document shows the amount spent on the four main types of gaming activity - racing, New Zealand Lotteries Commission, gaming machines (outside casinos) and casinos - between 1984 and 2008.Key Trends Over the 2007/2008 PeriodIn 2007/08 gambling expenditure (player losses) increased by less than one percent (by 0.71%, from $2.020 billion to $2.034 billion). This is a result of increases in expenditure on Lotteries Commission products, racing and sports betting and casino gambling. The 2007/08 figure is still below the peak expenditure figure of $2.039 billion in 2003//04, even without adjusting for inflation.
Note: Societies operating gaming machines on the 22 September 2003 were required to tell the Department (under section 89 of the Gambling Act) how many machines they were operating on that date. Any societies wishing to exceed the number recorded in the following document will need to obtain consent from the Department.
