Our role
We raise awareness of the IGA and make sure people are following it. To do this, we work with many different bodies. These include:
- international and national regulators
- licensing authorities
- service providers
- sporting and racing bodies
- other federal government agencies.
Website blocking
We have continued website blocking of services found to be in breach of the IGA.
