Commentary on Sections Schedule 27 - Minor and consequential amendments Paragraph 31 - Gaming Act 1968 (c. 65)
943.Paragraph 31 amends Paragraph 35A(8)(a) of Schedule 2 to the Gaming Act 1968, adding civil partners to the definition of "associate" for the purpose of assessing who controls a corporate body. This ensures that the Gaming Board will consider the voting power of the husband, wife, or civil partner of the holder of a certificate of consent.
