LOTTERIES REGULATION 2007 - REG 17AY

17AY Paper ticket to be returned if not a winning ticket

(1) If a person claiming a prize gives a paper ticket to a lottery agent or a lottery operator, the lottery agent or lottery operator must return the ticket if it can not be identified as a winning ticket using a gaming terminal.

(2) However, subsection (1) does not apply if an investigation by a lottery operator is required under the rule for a lottery ticket that appears to be a prize-winning ticket but is not identified by the lotteries computer system.
