Racing NSW Need to Start Giving Us the Full Picture on the ATC Intervention, Otherwise Racing People Will Start Painting Their Own

The actual money it receives from Racing NSW from wagering highlights why this argument is absurd given that in 2025, the ATC actually received $233.1 million in total funding from wagering revenues (TAB distribution + Racing NSW contributions). That’s $153 million more than the ATC generated itself – Dr Saranne Cooke, Racing NSW Chairperson: Letter to Participants, 26/9/2025
