Plain English Summary

2/10 complexity

This Act lets the Governor set, by regulation, a levy payable under Part V Division 7 of the Gaming and Wagering Commission Act 1987 and applies that levy to continuing lottery tickets. It affects businesses that operate continuing lotteries (they are liable to pay the levy) and matters because the levy amount can be fixed or calculated by reference to factors, moving rate-setting into delegated regulation and creating an administrative compliance cost dependent on how regulations are designed.
