CASINO (ELECTRONIC GAMING) ACT 2017 (NO. 42 OF 2017) - SECT 24

Status of restricted authorisations if development approval ends in other circumstances

    (1)     This section applies if—

        (a)     the casino licensee has a restricted authorisation under a casino gaming machine authorisation certificate or casino FATG authorisation certificate; and

        (b)     the development approval for the redevelopment of the casino and casino precinct ends otherwise than—

              (i)     under the Planning and Development Act 2007

, section 184 (End of development approvals other than lease variations); or

              (ii)     because the redevelopment of the casino and casino precinct is completed in accordance with the approval.

    (2)     The casino licensee may dispose of 1 or more authorisations to a class C licensee.

Note 1     The disposal of an authorisation is a notifiable action (see pt 10 and sch 2).

Note 2     A notifiable action takes effect—

        (a)     the prescribed number of days after the day the commission receives the notification (see s 50 (a)); or

        (b)     if the commission allows the notifiable action to take effect on an earlier day—that day (see s 50 (b)); or

        (c)     if the commission asks for additional information under s 49 (3)—when the commission has notified the licensee that it is satisfied in relation to the additional information (see s 50 (c)).

Note 3     A class C licensee may only acquire an authorisation if the class C licensee has less than the maximum number of authorisations for class C gaming machines allowed under the licensee's authorisation certificate (see Gaming Machine Act 2004

, s 127E and s 127G).

    (3)     The casino licensee must dispose of the authorisations not later than 3 months after the date the development approval ends.

    (4)     An authorisation not disposed of within the 3 months is forfeited to the Territory.

    (5)     The casino licensee is not entitled to claim compensation from the Territory for an authorisation forfeited to the Territory under subsection (4).
