✨ Gaming Machine Standards
29 JUNE 2004 NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE, No. 79 2003
NZ1 General
NZ1.1 Introduction
-
The Casino Control Authority ("Authority") has adopted the Australian/
New Zealand Gaming Machine National Standard ("National Standard") as
its core requirement for gaming machine equipment to be operated in
New Zealand casinos. -
Chapter 8 of the National Standard identifies the Authority’s position in
respect of those requirements that have not yet been standardised. The
chapter also sets out various parameters and values specific to New Zealand
casinos. -
This Appendix identifies any additional requirements that the Authority has
for gaming machines operating in New Zealand casinos. Such requirements
have been referenced back to the applicable section of the National Standard.
The Appendix also serves to clarify the Authority’s position in respect of
issues contained in the National Standard that require jurisdictional
clarification. -
The Authority’s requirements in respect of all other casino gaming
equipment are contained in the Gaming and Monitoring Equipment
Standards ("GAMES"), contained in Division IV of these rules.
NZ1.2 Adoption of Standard
- The National Standard takes effect from the date of publication in the
New Zealand Gazette. As noted in the main body of the National Standard, a
grace period of six months will apply before any new requirements not
previously identified in GAMES come into force.
NZ1.3 Equipment Testing and Approval
Submissions
- Gaming machines shall not be operated in any casino unless first approved
by the Authority. Submission requirements are identified in the National
Standard. Submissions may be forwarded direct to any of the Authority’s
accredited testing agencies.
Costs
- The Authority will determine the suitability or otherwise of the equipment
based on the recommendations of the test laboratory that has undertaken the
evaluation. The Authority is not responsible for any costs associated with the
testing of equipment.
Modifications
- All modifications to approved gaming machines will require the Authority’s
approval. In the case of minor hardware or artwork modifications, a supplier
may apply directly to the Authority for approval rather than making
submissions to a testing agency. The Authority will deal with any such
applications on their merits.
