Gambling Code Of Conduct Victoria

What is a Responsible Gambling Code of Conduct? It is a condition for all venue EGM operator licensees to have a Responsible Gambling Code of Conduct at your establishment. Your code of conduct must be in detail how you will foster responsible gambling compliance at your venue. In Victoria, the code of conduct must comply with the Ministerial Directions and be approved by the Victorian Commission for Gambling and Liquor Regulation. Of course, there are differences between the requirements for different states and territories.

The Codes cover many responsible gambling issues, but not all matters may be applicable to all licensees. In general terms, the Ministerial Directions state that a Code must include information on the following matters:

Whilst the majority of people gamble responsibly, a small percentage of people may experience difficulties associated with their gambling behaviours. Moe Racing Club values responsible gambling. If you or someone you know is experiencing gambling problems, please.

Information that a Code Must Include is:

Responsible gambling
The gambling products offered
Customers
Staff
Problem gambling support services
A transparent process for recording and resolving customer complaints
How to comply with the prohibition of gambling by minors
The gambling environment – how to discourage extended gambling
Responsible advertising and promotions

The following persons are required to have a code of conduct that has been approved by the Victorian Commission for Gambling and Liquor Regulation:

a venue operator
a wagering operator
a public lottery licensee
a commercial raffle organiser
a bingo centre operator
a casino operator
the holder of an interactive gaming licence and
the holder of the Keno licence
the holder of the wagering and betting licence.
a registered bookmaker.

Gambling Compliance Programs

For any gaming machine licensee, a gambling compliance program document (that sits behind the Code) is necessary for your business. This document contains precise details of your gaming compliance program, including policies and staff training, and the Victorian Commission for Gambling and Liquor Regulation will utilise this to make initial and then regular assessments to see whether or not your compliance program can meet the standards.

There are certain compliance obligations for signage that gaming machine licensees must have displayed on licensed premises regarding the cash payouts, gaming rules, responsible gambling, as well as staff behaviours pertaining to responsible gambling.

If you hold a venue operator's licence and you are acquiring another approved gambling venue, you may apply to have the approved venue added to your existing licence.
