Exclusion by casino official
82 Exclusion by casino official
A casino official may exclude a person from entering or remaining in the casino by giving the person notice (an exclusion notice), orally or in writing.
A casino official must give a person an exclusion notice if the official believes, on reasonable grounds, that the person—
is affecting the orderly functioning of the operations of the casino; or
appears to be cheating, or attempting to cheat, in the casino.
A person may also be excluded from the casino under the Gambling and Racing Control (Code of Practice) Regulation 2002, sch 1, s 1.14 (Exclusion of people at risk or excluded under deed).
A written exclusion notice must state—
that the notice is made under this section; and
the period for which the person is to be excluded; and
the reasons for the exclusion; and
that the person may apply to the commission for a review of the decision to exclude the person from the casino.
A person given an oral exclusion notice may be removed from the casino while a casino official prepares a written exclusion notice for the person.
A person may not be excluded from the casino under an oral exclusion notice for longer than 2 weeks.
