The gambling sector in New Zealand is looked after by the Department of Internal Affairs casino and non-casi- no services. The Gambling Compliance group audits and investigates non casino gaming activities, licences all non casino gaming and issues certificates of approval for casino employees. The casino inspectorate regulates casino activities.
The sector is governed by the Gambling Act 2003 and the Crown Entities Act 2004. The Gambling Act replaced the Gaming and Lotteries Act 1977 and the Casino Control Act 1990 and created a more har- monised framework for the whole gaming industry.
The Gambling Act 2003 includes the following:
l No more casino venue licences can be granted under the Act although existing casino licences can be renewed.
l No overseas gambling advertisements can be pub- lished in New Zealand.
l The Act divides gambling into six classes
1. Class 1 gambling (no licence required) – not for com- mercial gain or profit and includes total prize value awarded of $500 maximum and $500 maximum turnover.
