Premises Responsibilities (Click to view the Gambling Commission's Code Of Conduct)

​

Gaming machines shall be located where their use can be monitored by bar & floor staff. (See 2.1)

Staff must monitor the use of machines ensuring vulnerable groups are prevented from accessing them. (See 3). Vulnerable groups include but are not limited to:

- Under 18's

- Those displaying signs of problem gambling

- Self-excluded individuals

Customers requesting exclusion from gambling should have their details recorded to exclude them for an agreed period (not less than six months). We recommend implementing a similar system as you use to bar customers.

​

Gaming machines will be located away from ATM's (Cash Machines) to ensure those who use gaming machines will cease gambling to withdraw further funds.

​

Gaming machines will only be made available for use during the hours the premises is permitted to serve alcohol.
