A challenge for Chris Tremain: get the state out of the silly business of monitoring spot draws

Dunno if this is the sort of thing that is guaranteed to earn public acclaim for Chris Tremain as it did for Crusher Collins with her crackdown on boy races.

In fact the issue is so bloody trivial, we must wonder why the government shows any interest at all.

But it gives Internal Affairs Minister Chris Tremain something to do at a weekend, obviously.

He has been tidying up, then releasing a media statement (here) calling for changes to the regulations around spot prize draws.

Spot prize draws?

These are worrying our Government?

Yep.
