The levy is **3.25% of the face value of lottery tickets** sold from 1 July 2000 onwards.\n\n**Who it affects:**\n\n- **Lottery operators** in Western Australia who must pay this levy to the Gaming and Wagering Commission\n- **The Gaming and Wagering Commission**, which collects the money\n- **The WA Government**, which uses these funds (typically for racing, gambling regulation, or community benefit programs)\n\n**Why it matters:**\n\nThis is a **money-raising measure**. The levy ensures that lottery operators contribute a percentage of their ticket sales back to the state. The 3.25% rate was locked in from 1 July 2000, replacing or supplementing previous funding arrangements for lotteries.\n\nThe regulations work together with the *Gaming and Wagering Commission Act 1987* (the main law) and the *Gaming and Wagering Commission (Continuing Lotteries Levy) Act 2000* (which authorised these regulations). Think of it as the \"fine print\" that sets the actual dollar percentage, while the Acts provide the legal power to charge it."}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/gaming-commission-continuing-lotteries-levy-regulations-2000","history":"/api/acts/gaming-commission-continuing-lotteries-levy-regulations-2000/history","analysis":"/api/acts/gaming-commission-continuing-lotteries-levy-regulations-2000/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/gaming-commission-continuing-lotteries-levy-regulations-2000/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/gaming-commission-continuing-lotteries-levy-regulations-2000/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/gaming-commission-continuing-lotteries-levy-regulations-2000/documents"}}
