### sec.69 Issue of amalgamated gaming machine licences to clubs
This section applies if, at its commencement, a club holds more than 1 gaming machine licence, each for separate premises.
Within 1 month after the commencement, the commissioner must issue a single, fresh gaming machine licence (an amalgamated licence ) to the licensee to replace the gaming machine licences held by the licensee at the commencement (the superseded licences ).
The amalgamated licence—
is to relate to each of the premises that, at the commencement, were licensed premises of the licensee; and
for its application to particular premises—has the same effect for all purposes as the superseded licence had for the premises.
The amalgamated licence must be in the approved form, which must provide for the inclusion of the following particulars—
the name of the licensee;
the location of each of the premises to which the licence relates;
the date of issue of the licence;
any conditions of the licence (other than conditions applying because of section 73 (1) (a) ).
A condition to be stated in the amalgamated licence must be a condition to the same effect as a condition stated in a superseded licence.
On the issue of the amalgamated licence to the licensee, each superseded licence held by the licensee is cancelled.
Within 14 days after receiving the amalgamated licence, the licensee must return each superseded licence in the licensee’s possession to the commissioner.
Maximum penalty—40 penalty units.
