South Australian Consolidated Acts36—Cause for disciplinary action against licensees
(1) There is proper
cause for disciplinary action against a licensee if the Commissioner is
satisfied that—
(a) the
licence was improperly obtained; or
(b) the
licensee is not a fit and proper person to hold the licence; or
(c) in
the case of a licensee that is a trust or corporate entity—a person who
occupies a position of authority in the entity is not a fit and proper person
to occupy such a position in an entity holding such a licence; or
(d) the
licensee has contravened or failed to comply with a provision of this Act or a
condition of the licence; or
(da) the
licensee has contravened or failed to comply with the advertising
code of practice or the responsible gambling code of practice; or
(e) the
licensee has been convicted of an offence against this Act; or
(f) the
licensee has been convicted of an offence punishable by imprisonment; or
(g) the
licensee has ceased to operate gaming machines on the premises the subject of
a gaming machine licence; or
(h) it
would be contrary to the public interest if the licensee were to continue to
be licensed.
(2) In determining
whether there is proper cause for disciplinary action against a licensee under
subsection (1), regard may be had to such evidence of the conduct (no
matter when the conduct is alleged to have occurred) of the licensee or
persons with whom the licensee associates (or has associated at any relevant
time) as the Commissioner considers relevant, including information that
existed at the time the licence was granted, regardless of whether that
information was known or could have been made known to the Commissioner at
that time.
