LightsOut 486 Report post Posted July 13, 2020 to have legislation put in place before they can introduce virtual racing when NZ Lotto already have this type of betting available for gambling online in NZ? Surely under either the Fair Trading or Commerce Acts if a Company is already offering this type of service to their customers then the same product should be available to other NZ based gambling companies. The Christchurch Casino a number of years ago had Virtual Horse Racing you could bet on so once again very odd that new legislation is needed by NZ Racing to conduct this type of betting. No doubt the clueless DIA advised them that legislation was required. Virtual betting is betting on computer-generated images of a sporting event, usually a horse for virtual horse racing. That is what NZ Lotto offer so once again why the need for the NZ Racing Industry to have to wait for legislation to be passed for them to offer the same type of betting product? Currently NZ Lotto has a monopoly on Virtual horse racing betting in NZ. Remind me again how much NZ Lotto contributes to the NZ Racing Industry? Below is the horse racing online betting that NZ Lotto offers to their gambling customers. Granted it's very basic but it still constitutes online virtual racing to bet on.
