Interactive Gambling (Player Protection) Act 1998

This section applies if, after considering the accepted representations for the show cause notice, the chief executive still believes—

a ground exists to direct the termination of the agency agreement; and

the act, omission or other thing constituting the ground is of a serious and fundamental nature; and

either—

the integrity of the conduct of interactive games by the licensed provider may be jeopardised; or

the public interest may be affected adversely.

This section also applies if, after considering the accepted representations for a show cause notice, the chief executive directs the agent to rectify a matter and the agent fails to comply with the direction within the time allowed for compliance.

The chief executive may, by written notice given to the licensed provider, direct the licensed provider to terminate the agreement within the time stated in the notice.

If the chief executive decides to give a direction under this section, the chief executive must promptly give written notice of the decision to the agent affected by the decision.

A notice under subsection (3) or (4) must comply with the QCAT Act, section 157(2).
