Schedule 7 - Gambling appeals tribunal
Gambling Bill
Public Bill Committees, 2 December 2004, 2:30 pm
Mr Malcolm Moss (Shadow Minister, Home Affairs; North East Cambridgeshire, Conservative)
I beg to move amendment No. 332, in schedule 7, page 162, line 2, at end insert
', and in the event of a tie, the president shall have the casting vote'.
This is a simple amendment. We understand that under the current procedure tribunal decisions may be made by majority vote, but there does not seem to be any provision for procedure in the event of a tie. That is what the amendment seeks to address.
