Amendments Nos. 174, 178 and 179 are technical amendments. Amendments Nos. 175 and 176 cover specified changes in licensees' information that must be notified to the authority. Amendment No. 177 provides that a commercial licence is granted subject to compliance with certain conditions. Amendment No. 178 provides that the requirement to hold segregated customer accounts applies to both online and in-person participants. Importantly, amendment No. 180 ensures that no participant, including the licensee, will have an unfair advantage over other participants in a gambling activity. Amendment No. 181 is procedural. Amendment No. 182 provides obligations on licensees not to engage, permit or employ a child to act on a licensee's behalf except where authorised by the authority in the case of a charitable or philanthropic licensee.
