53B Condition about club’s constitution—amendment if inconsistent with gaming laws (1) It is a condition of a licence for a club that the club’s constitution provides that, if the commission directs the club, under section 148B (Club constitution—consistency with gaming laws), to amend its constitution to remove an inconsistency with a gaming law, the club must amend its constitution, with or without an election of its voting members.
(2) This section is declared to be a corporations legislation displacement provision for the Corporations Act, section 5G (Avoiding direct inconsistency arising between the Corporations legislation and State and Territory laws). Note Subsection (2) ensures that any provision of the Corporations Act or the Australian Securities and Investment Commission Act 2001 (Cwlth) with which this section would otherwise be inconsistent does not apply to the extent necessary to avoid the inconsistency.
