### sec.109ZA When entitlement becomes entitlement of the State
An entitlement of a licensee becomes an entitlement of the State and stops being an entitlement of the licensee by operation of this subsection if the licensee’s gaming machine licence—
is cancelled under section 96 because the licensee’s liquor licence is transferred, cancelled or surrendered; or
is cancelled under section 97 (12) (c) (ii) (A) or (13) (a) .
Subsection (3) applies if, at any time, the endorsed number of entitlements for licensed premises is more than the approved number of gaming machines for the licensed premises because of—
the approval of a decrease proposal that is a request or report under section 87 (1) ; or
other circumstances prescribed under a regulation.
The entitlements that are more in number than the approved number of gaming machines for the licensed premises stop being entitlements of a licensee and become entitlements of the State by operation of this subsection.
A temporary transfer ends if the entitlement that is the subject of the temporary transfer becomes an entitlement of the State under subsection (1) or (3) .
