122: Existing casino licences and agreements

You could also call this:

"Old casino licences are treated like new ones under the law"

If you have a casino licence that already exists, it is treated as a new licence under the law. Your existing casino operator's licence is like one that was granted under section 130. Your existing casino premises licence is treated like a casino venue licence. You also treat your existing casino venue agreement like one that was approved under section 133. This means you follow the same rules as people who got their licences after the law changed.
