Article Abstract:
The New South Wales gaming company TAB limited is under takeover offer from the Queensland wagering company UNiTAB, and a rival bid is expected from Tabcorp in Victoria. The co-investment clause prevented TAB from making moves on the TABs in South Australia and the Northern Territory that were eventually acquired by UNiTAB.
