If the club conducts raffles, art unions, or fundraising lotteries, it must hold the appropriate L&GNSW permit (or operate within a permit exemption for small lotteries under $30,000 total prize value). Larger lotteries require a specific permit with conditions on prize disclosure, financial reporting, and audit.
Working draft, not legal advice
The plain-English summary above is drafted by Venue Axis as a navigation aid. The citation is the authoritative source — treat it as the definitive reference. For a legal interpretation of this obligation in your venue's context, talk to your counsel.
Conducting an unauthorised lottery is an offence under the Lotteries and Art Unions Act. Penalties include fines and potential prosecution. L&GNSW may also consider it a fitness-and-propriety concern for the club's gaming licence.
Consequences are summarised from the underlying legislation. Specific penalties depend on the breach pattern, prior history, and the regulator's enforcement posture. Talk to a liquor and gaming lawyer for a definitive view of your venue's exposure.
