Illustration for Gambling Act 2003

If you were a member or an alternate member of the Lotteries Commission before this part of the law started, you are now a member or alternate member of the board of the Lotteries Commission. You get to keep being a member for the rest of the time you were originally appointed for. This means you do not have to stop being a member just because this new law has started.
