Minister for Gaming Tony Robinson
Today we are here launching one of the government's new strategies to tackle problem gambling.
This is our new tram here with the most powerful signage yet, and this is designed to warn people about the risks of problem gambling. To encourage them to stay in control, to exercise greater control, to walk away.
It's important with respect to gambling that people control it. They don't allow it to control them.

The tram will be prominent on Melbourne's streets until September.
