227: Gambling Commission may sit in divisions

You could also call this:

"The Gambling Commission can work in smaller groups to make decisions."

The Gambling Commission can decide to sit in smaller groups, called divisions, to do its jobs. You can read about these jobs in section 224. If the Commission decides to sit in a division, the group will have up to 3 members, including the Chief Gambling Commissioner or someone acting for them. The Chief Gambling Commissioner chooses who will be in a division. You should note that some parts of this section have been repealed, which means they are no longer part of the law.
