GAMING MACHINES ACT 2001 - SECT 32A
Caps on gaming machine entitlements in particular areas
(1) In this section--
"Fairfield LGA" means the Fairfield local government area.
"restricted increase area" means any local statistical area of the State that
is classified as a Band 3 LSA (not being an area within Fairfield LGA) and
that the Authority determines from time to time to be a
restricted increase area for the purposes of this section.
(2) The Authority
may determine from time to time the maximum number of
gaming machine entitlements to be permitted in Fairfield LGA or a
restricted increase area and that number is the
"area cap" for the area concerned.
(3) The following restrictions apply to
a threshold increase application for a venue in an area for which there is an
area cap if granting the application would result in the total of the
gaming machine thresholds for all the venues in the area exceeding the
area cap-- (a) if the venue is in Fairfield LGA the application must not be
granted,
(b) if the venue is in a restricted increase area the application
can only be granted if the threshold increase application is not required to
be accompanied by an LIA (as provided by section 35).
(4) For the purposes of
a determination under this section of the total of the
gaming machine thresholds for venues in an area, the gaming machine threshold
for a venue is not to be reduced by a lease of gaming machine entitlements by
the venue (with the result that for the purposes of this section the venue's
gaming machine threshold is to be determined as if no
gaming machine entitlements had been leased by the venue). Note : Section 25B
(Effect of lease of gaming machine entitlements) would otherwise result in the
gaming machine threshold for the lessor venue being reduced by the number of
entitlements leased.
(5) The following arrangements apply to determinations
under this section-- (a) the Authority may vary or revoke a determination at
any time,
(b) a determination and any variation or revocation of a
determination must be notified by the Authority on a publicly available
website.
