Venue Operational Requirements

2.04 Perimeter barriers surrounding the gaming machine area


In order to be physically discrete, a gaming machine area (GMA) must be separated within the venue by an internal barrier.

This must, as a minimum:
      • be sufficiently secure to deter any person from attempting to pass through, or climb over or under the barrier, or knock the barrier or any part of it over
      • if not a floor-to-ceiling wall, be of a minimum height of 1.2 metres, unless a service bar/counter forms part of the perimeter barrier
      • have an entrance/s of no more than 2.5 metres wide that allow/s for appropriate management and supervision of the entrance/s
      • provide a permanent fixture at each entrance for displaying the notice prohibiting persons under the age of 18 years from entering the GMA.
