Substitute certificates of registration
138 Substitute certificates of registration
If Tasracing is satisfied that a registered bookmaker is temporarily incapable of carrying on business because of illness or some other unavoidable or reasonable cause, Tasracing may, at its absolute discretion, issue a substitute certificate of registration to a nominee of that bookmaker.
The nominee must be a registered bookmaker's agent.
A substitute certificate of registration authorises the person to whom it is issued to carry on the bookmaking business of the incapacitated bookmaker, on that bookmaker's behalf, during the period specified in the certificate.
A person to whom a substitute certificate is issued is subject to the same liability in all respects as if the person were registered as a bookmaker.
A bookmaker is responsible for all the acts of a person who acts, or purports to act, on the bookmaker’s behalf as the holder of a substitute certificate of registration.
