About LGWGOG

The VLGA convenes the Local Government Working Group on Gambling (LGWGOG). The group provides an opportunity for councillors and council officers from VLGA member councils to come together to hear from informed speakers about current gambling harm prevention research and policy and consider Municipal Public Health and Wellbeing Plan implications and the regulatory environment. LGWGOG provides a resource for promotion of excellence that better enables effective policy, delivery and advocacy by VLGA members.

We meet on the third Wednesday of every second month beginning February (skipping June and returning July).
