3356 NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE No. 114

B.2.3.7. Use of Electro-Mechanical Meters

If electro-mechanical meters are required by a casino operator, the casino operator’s controls and auditing procedures pertaining to electro-mechanical meters must be approved before the Authority will permit the information obtained from mechanical meters to be relied upon.

B.2.3.8. Live Games

The procedures for the conduct and playing of live keno, horse racing or other such electronically-based games involving interaction with more than one player at a time are to be included in the internal controls and procedures manual which shall require the approval of the Authority.

B.2.3.9. Gaming Tournaments

a. The procedures for the conduct and playing of tournament games are to be included in the internal controls and procedures manual which shall require the approval of the Authority.

b. Particular attention must be given to:

i. conditions of entry and fees;

ii. prize pool and distribution;

iii. conditions of play;

iv. the requirements for “Tournament Mode” operation of gaming devices.

B.2.3.10. Statistical Collection Requirements for Traditional Games

a. Traditional games employ hardware-based random number generators (eg. flipping of coins, rolling of dice, spinning of wheel, etc) which are not able to be mathematically proven and may establish a bias in the course of operation.

b. Where a hardware-based RNG is used, the Authority may require the casino operator to ensure that statistics are maintained on the frequency with which each possible event has occurred and provide those statistics upon request for analysis by the Authority.

B.2.3.11. Rules of Play

The casino operator must provide or display the rules of play together with the payout schedule for each game offered.

B.2.3.12. Software Validation

The casino operator shall ensure that there are means in place whereby signature verification of all software resident on all processor boards associated with a gaming device (including programmable coin or note acceptors, card reading devices, display drivers, I/O boards, printer and other peripheral controllers) is able to be verified. The Authority will consider either automatic or manual processes or a combination of both.

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 ...
