Gaming Machines Act 2001

The former holder of a gaming-related licence or work permit cancelled by the operation of section 109 may apply to the Authority for the reinstatement of the licence or work permit.

Such an application must be made within 2 months after the cancellation of the licence or work permit. The application must be accompanied by payment of the unpaid licence fee concerned.

The regulations may make provision for or with respect to the manner in which such an application is to be made, the documents required to accompany the application and requiring payment of a fee in respect of the application.

The Authority may reinstate the licence or work permit if the Authority is satisfied that there is a reasonable explanation for the failure to pay the licence fee that resulted in the cancellation of the licence or work permit.

(Repealed)

If the application for reinstatement is not successful, the Authority is to refund the licence fee paid with the application after deducting the amount (if any) that is the used portion of the licence fee, calculated in accordance with the following formula—

If the Authority is satisfied that trading in exercise (or purported exercise) of the licence or work permit ceased on a particular day, the Authority may determine that the number of trading days is to be calculated up to and including that day rather than up to and including the date of cancellation. The day determined by the Authority may be before or after the date of cancellation.
