|
Gaming Permits (Club’s ONLY): |
|
Club Gaming Permits are required to
allow the use of Gaming Machines in your Club. They are granted from
your local Council and will allow the use of up to three machines from
Categories B4, C or D. You will also need to pay Amusement Machine
Licence Duty for each machine which is Category B4 or C. |
 |
|
The Gambling Act 2005 recognises: |
|
Members' Clubs must have at least 25
members and be established or conducted mainly for purposes other than
gaming. |
 |
|
The Club shouldn't be established to
make a commercial profit, and should be controlled by its members.
Examples include most sports clubs, working men’s clubs, branches of
the Royal British Legion and politically affiliated clubs. |
 |
|
Club Gaming Permits allow the provision
of no more than three gaming machines. These may be from Categories
B4, C or D. The Club is permitted to choose the combination of
machines on its premises. |
 |
|
If a Club doesn't wish to have the full
range of facilities permitted by a Club Gaming Permit, or if they are
a Commercial Club not permitted to provide non-machine gaming (other
than exempt gaming under Section 269 of the Act), they may apply to
their Local Council for a Club Machine Permit under Section 273 of the
Act. |
 |
|
This authorises the holder to have up to
three gaming machines of Categories B4, C and D. |
 |
|
Club Gaming Permits replace the
permissions provided by Part II registration under the 1968 Gaming
Act, while Club Machine Permits replace the permissions provided by
Part III registration under the 1968 Act. |
 |
|
Club Permit Fees: |
|
Please contact your local Council for
confirmation of the fee payable. Please note when applying for the
first Club Gaming Permit, a reduction in the fee will be allowed if
the applicant produces the old (or soon to expire) Registration Under
Part 3 Certificate. |
