Illustration for Gambling Act 2003

The law says some old Acts are repealed, which means they are no longer valid. You will not see the Casino Control Act 1990 or the Gaming and Lotteries Act 1977 used anymore. The Instant Kiwi (Prize Competition) Rules 1989 are also revoked, which means they are cancelled and no longer apply to you. Some laws are being removed or updated, and this change affects how gambling is controlled in New Zealand.
