Facilitating conduct that corrupts the betting outcome of an event is an offence under section 1930 of the Crimes Act 1900, which carries a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison.
To establish the offence, the prosecution must prove beyond reasonable doubt that:
‘Conduct’ means any act or omission to perform an act.
Conduct ‘corrupts the betting outcome of an event’ if:
‘Betting’ includes placing, accepting or withdrawing a bet, as well as causing a bet to be placed, accepted or withdrawn.
To ‘facilitate’ means to:
An ‘agreement’ includes an arrangement.
You were reckless if you foresaw the possibility that your conduct would facilitate corrupting the betting outcome of the event, but went ahead with your actions regardless.
