EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

The Casino Control Act 2006 (the Act) regulates the operation of the casino in the Territory.  

Section 95 of the Act enables the casino licensee to apply in writing to the ACT Gambling and Racing Commission (the Commission) for a declaration that a game is an authorised game.  A declaration under section 95 of the Act is a notifiable instrument.

The Commission received an application from the casino licensee to have Canberra Casino Hold-em Poker declared an Authorised Game.  This instrument provides a declaration by the Commission of the authorised game of Canberra Casino Hold-em Poker pursuant to section 95 of the Act.  

The game appearing in the schedule to the instrument is a combination of two games currently offered by the casino licensee and is similar to a game offered by Conrad Treasury casino and Crown casino.
