The NSW GBOTA would like to express our strong disapproval regarding the recent announcement regarding nose print recognition and its associated costs, made at 4:30 PM on Friday, September 27, 2024.
During a recent meeting, GWIC sought our input on the costs associated with the nose recognition program. We made it abundantly clear in our correspondence with Mr. Steve Griffin, that we DO NOT support the transfer of these costs to participants, who are already facing prizemoney deductions and rising cost of living expenses due to economic inflation.
While we recognise the potential benefits of this technology as a progressive step for the industry, we believe it is imperative to adopt a more commercially viable approach. The implementation of such initiatives should not adversely impact participants; rather, it should be structured to generate financial benefits for the industry as a whole.
We urge GWIC to consider the implications of this decision and advocate for a solution that supports our participants rather than burdens them further.
