✨ Keno Game Rules and Procedures

3326 NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE No. 114

9.2 After a period of twelve months from a win being recorded but remaining unclaimed, the player shall cease to have any claim in relation to the prize. The casino operator shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, apply the amount of the prize to such purpose or purposes as the Authority may approve.

9.3 The casino operator shall record such particulars of all unclaimed prizes applied pursuant to rule 9.2, and of all unclaimed prizes held by it prior to such application, as the Secretary may require.

10.0 Game Closure

The casino operator may close keno prior to the close of gaming, provided that twenty minutes’ prior notice of the closure is given to players and to a Government inspector. This rule applies subject to any restrictions relating to the hours during which the casino may operate.

11.0 Irregularities

11.1 In the event of an equipment malfunction which has not compromised the integrity of the draw, or an error in the transfer of winning numbers from the keno drawing device to the display boards or monitors, the winning numbers on the twenty balls drawn shall be the official record, unless those numbers were drawn by a random number generator, in which case the numbers recorded by the keno computer shall be the official record.

11.2 A draw shall be invalid if a ball or number is retained in the keno drawing device in such a manner that it is prevented from forming part of the draw.

11.3 If fewer than eighty numbers are in the keno drawing device at the commencement of the draw, that draw shall be void and a new draw commenced.

11.4 Under a system using a ball drawing device operating mechanically:

(a) if a keno ball breaks and a portion of the ball is drawn as a winning number, that number shall be declared void and shall not be counted as a valid number. A further ball shall be drawn to complete the twenty winning numbers and the draw shall otherwise be declared a valid draw. The keno supervisor shall remove the broken ball from the device and replace it with a new ball in the presence of a Government inspector prior to the conduct of any further draws on the device;

As the Gazette has been published for more than 185 years, copyright status depends on the publication date of each issue:

1840–1925 (Public Domain): Issues of the New Zealand Gazette and Provincial Gazettes from this period are in the public domain, as the term of Crown copyright (100 years) has expired. Mechanical reproductions (e.g., scanned PDFs) of these public domain documents do not attract new copyright.
1926–1999 (Crown Copyright): Issues from this period remain subject to Crown copyright. Usage of these issues in this project is "Fair Dealing" for research purposes and consistent with the spirit of the open-access principles championed by NZGOAL, ie, "The default licensing position under ...
