According to an article published today in the online edition of the Australian newspaper "The Age", a study to try and determine if there is a link between crime and depression and problem gambling. The article does not say however WHY the research has been cancelled.
The paper also says the government has other research studies that have been completed, but not released to the public. They hint that the reason behind the cancellation of this recent study and failing to release completed ones is that the government will not like that the results will show gambling should not be permitted in certain areas.
In my view, this is unacceptable! I do not know what the results of the studies will show, but as I have stated often here, I am an open-government believer. These studies should be released, and the study about crime should absolutely be completed!
