sec.29A Extension of wagering licence
A wagering licensee may apply for an extension (an extension application) of the term of the licensee’s licence. An extension application must be made at least 1 month before the licence expires. The provisions of this part relating to an application for, and issue of, a wagering licence apply to an extension application as if an extension application were an application for a wagering licence. However, for the purposes of subsection (3) — section 26 (1) applies as if the reference to the Minister issuing the authority were a reference to the Minister issuing an extension of the licence; and section 29 (1) applies as if the wagering licence remained in force for the term stated in the extension. To remove any doubt, it is declared that a wagering licence may be extended one or more times. s 29A ins 2013 No. 62 s 63 (sec.29A-ssec.1) A wagering licensee may apply for an extension (an extension application) of the term of the licensee’s licence.
