Your papers please?

In a deal that allowed Labour to retain power in the lower house of the Federal Parliament it has been proposed that by 2014, biometric scanning systems be installed on all poker machines throughout clubs and pubs across Australia.

The club industry through Clubs NSW has expressed concerns regarding the right to privacy of its patrons as well as the unjustified technology costs associated with policing every poker machine player regardless of the frequency and level of their gambling.

"Until now, it was only criminals fingerprinted. From 2012, it will be criminals and anyone who ever plays a poker machine," said Clubs NSW executive director Anthony Ball.
