REQUIREMENTS FOR ESTABLISHING A GAMING SITE > Requirements
Short Summary
This document outlines the requirements for establishing a gaming site under the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation Act, 1999. The Corporation has the authority to authorize the establishment of a gaming site on an electronic channel or at approved premises in a municipality or on a reserve. However, certain conditions must be met before authorization can be granted. These conditions include the preparation of a business case that demonstrates the viability of the proposed gaming site and the adequacy of responsible gaming features. The business case must be reviewed by the Minister and the Minister of Finance. In the case of a proposed gaming site in a municipality or on a reserve, public input must be sought, and a resolution supporting the establishment of the gaming site must be passed by the municipal council or the council of the band. The Minister and the Minister of Finance must agree to the business case, and the Corporation must publish a notice informing the public about the proposed gaming site. There are exemptions to these requirements if the proposed gaming site is to be established at the same premises where a charitable organization conducts and manages certain lottery schemes authorized by the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario Act, 2019. The lottery schemes offered at the proposed gaming site must be restricted to specific games conducted and managed by the Corporation. No specific penalties are mentioned in this document.
