31 Review of casino licence and operator suitability

by investigating and forming an opinion as to whether or not-- (a) the
casino operator is a suitable person to continue to give effect to the
casino licence and this Act, and
(b) it is in the public interest that the
casino licence should continue in force.
(1A) A review is to be carried out--

(b) into each
casino operator concurrently.
(1B) The reasonable costs incurred in relation
to a review are to be paid by the casino operators, with each casino operator
to pay the proportion of the costs decided by the NICC, having regard to the
effort involved in investigating each operator and the findings of the review.
(1C) The NICC may require a casino operator to pay an amount towards the
reasonable costs of the review before the review starts and during the period
in which the review is held.
(1D) If the amount paid by a casino operator
under subsection (1C) is more than the amount calculated under subsection (1B)
at the end of the review to be payable by the operator, the NICC must refund
the excess amount to the operator.
(2) The NICC is to report its findings and
opinion on a review under this section to the Minister, giving reasons for its
opinion, and is to take any action under this Act that it considers
appropriate in light of its findings.
(3) The regulations may postpone or
extend the intervals between reviews required under this section.
