Well, they're ever-present.
They're here a lot.
They've, in the past, paid to be part of the parliamentary sports club so that they can come and play parliamentary sport in the morning.
I took exception to the fact that the Parliament House Sports Club is sponsored by the gambling lobby and was kicked out of the sports club for saying that.
Apparently, I've been invited back, but I haven't actually heard
heard from them.
So it's just totally normal.
It's mostly non-contact.
But they're here all the time, but we don't actually really know because we've got a system here where ministerial diaries aren't routinely released.
So it's really only through FOIs or Russian documents in the Senate.
But a lot of those don't actually get complied with in full by the government.
We're dealing with a very secretive government.
I don't think this is just the gambling lobby, though.
I think if you look at someone like Peter Volandis,
clearly got a close relationship with the prime minister.
He's the chairman of the NRL.
The NRL and AFL, as I understand it, they won't talk publicly about these details, but they actually get a commission on Betts Place now.
And so it's no longer just this sponsorship model.
It's actually part of the business model.
And we've seen huge pushback from them.
