Gambling Act 2005 (the "Act")
The Act enters force in September 2007 bringing a unified approach to a previously disjointed legal regime. Gone are the Betting, Gaming and Lotteries Act 1963, the Gaming Act 1968 and the Lotteries and Amusements Act 1976. Remote Gambling via the Internet and other means of communication is now also regulated. Offline and online Gambling will be under the auspices of the Gambling Commission.
With the exception of the National Lottery and Spread Betting, all forms of Gambling will be subject to the Act. Gambling includes a wide range of activities, notably prize competitions, course betting, lotteries, poker, casinos and gaming machines.
SGH can explain to you whether and how the Act affects you and what you need to do to comply.
