Albanese gov't supports ad caps on TV gambling ads, aligning with Coalition's pledge; proposes blanket ban on betting ads on digital platforms.

They plan to propose a blanket ban on betting ads on social media and other digital platforms, which may face opposition from the gambling industry. Communications Minister Michelle Rowland's plans, not yet presented to the cabinet, are subject to change.
