EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Research was commissioned to monitor the prevalence of gambling and problem gambling and research to determine the socio-economic impact of illegal gambling with specific focus on online gambling and to determine the capacity required by National Gambling Board (NGB) to combat illegal gambling. In Improving regulation and prosecution of online gambling, the NGB participated in various collaborative law enforcement Forums and commenced with the application for forfeiture of unlawful winnings to the state. Development of a register of illegal operatives commenced. The illegal operator’s module concept document and the national registry concept document has been developed. The NGB gathered national gambling statistics and information about the performance of the South African legalised gambling industry from all Provincial Licensing Authorities (PLA’s).

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY cont EXECUTIVE SUMMARY cont.... Increase in GGR (all modes) per quarter, FY15, from Quarter 1,2 & 3 Gross Gambling Revenue (GGR) generated in the casino industry increased by 8.3% as a result of the increase of operational casinos positions in four out of the nine provinces i.e. Gauteng, Western Cape, KwaZulu-Natal and Northern Cape over the same period. An increase of 10.2% in was reflected in the (Limited Payout Machine (LPM) industry. This is mainly as a result of a 1.9% increase in the roll out of active LPMs especially in Gauteng, Western Cape, Mpumalanga and Eastern Cape. The most significant increase in GGR was noticed in the betting industry as GGR increased with 13.3% ,mainly as a result of increased GGR generated in sports betting (totalisators and bookmakers). Decreases in GGR were noticed in the bingo industry mainly as a result of decreases in the generating of GGR in Gauteng during the first three quarters of FY15. It needs to be highlighted that operational gambling positions in the bingo industry increased by 44.7% from FY15 (Quarter 1: 4 577) to FY15 (Quarter 3: 6 622).

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY cont.... Proposed action Key challenges Capacity constraints impacts on our ability to effectively reach out as broad as possible to sections of our communities when doing public awareness and education. The Legal Skills in the NGB are scarce and this presents a major challenge in the regulatory environment within which NGB operates. The NGB Trust which existed as a separate entity was de-registered and all confiscated winnings were transferred into an NGB-owned separate bank account. The NGB is experiencing challenges allocating the confiscated winnings due to inadequate documentation. Collaborating with the dti in participating in the public outreach and initiatives organised by the dti. Capacitating the organisation in mission critical areas such as compliance generally, prevention and detection of illegal gambling as well as enforcement. The NGB continues to liaise with the banks in an attempt to obtain source documents for the confiscated suspected unlawful winnings.

FINANCIAL STATUS AND PERFORMANCE VARIANCE ANALYSIS (Figures reported are subject to change due to audited financial statements) Administrative Expenses - The negative variance of R848,384 is attributable to the straight-lining of the lease liability which gave rise to a debit to the rental expense account. Professional and Consulting Fees - The positive variance of R2,621,891 on professional fees was due to savings on projects which have been committed but not yet completed, such as the NCEMS technical advise (R714,072), an Omnibus research on the socio-economic impact of gambling (R340,000) and the on-going internal and external audits (R223,261).
