Clause 104 - Power to limit duration
Gambling Bill
10:00 am
Mr Richard Caborn (Minister of State (Sport and Tourism), Department for Culture, Media & Sport; Sheffield Central, Labour)
The clause does not provide any express powers to the commission to revoke a determination that an operating licence should be of limited duration. Amendments Nos. 290 and 291 simply make it clear that the commission has those powers. That was always the policy intention, but without the amendments, the clause does not make that clear.
Amendment agreed to.
Amendment made: No. 291, in clause 104, page 48, line 10, at end insert
', and
( ) may revoke a determination under subsection (1) (in which case the determination shall cease to have effect in relation to licences already issued).'. —[Mr. Caborn]
Clause 104, as amended, ordered to stand part of the Bill.
