Australian Capital Territory
Race and Sports Bookmaking (Sports Bookmaking Venues) Determination 2008 (No 2) 
Disallowable Instrument DI2008—248

EXPLANATORY STATEMENT

The Race and Sports Bookmaking Act 2001 (the Act) regulates the activities of sports bookmakers in the Australian Capital Territory.

Part 3 of the Act provides for the conduct and control of sports bookmaking.   Section 21(1) of the Act provides that the Commission may determine a place to be a sports bookmaking venue for the purpose of the Act.

This instrument revokes DI2007-97 dated 23 April 2007 and notified under the Legislation Register on 24 April 2007.  The instrument approves ACTTAB Ltd sub-agencies as sports bookmaking venues.

The new determination approves the areas within a one-metre radius of any selling terminal, owned and operated by ACTTAB Limited and located within the venues identified in the Schedule to the instrument.  A selling terminal is defined as a SELPOS or AMTOTE AT 1000 selling terminal.  

The amendment to the previously determined instrument is necessary to reflect a change in name of three determined venues from which an ACTTAB sub-agency operates, the inclusion of a new determined venue and to remove six previously determined venues from which an ACTTAB sub-agency no longer operates.  
The changes are reflected in the tables below:

Wests @ Kaleen	Southern Cross Club Kaleen
