The Amusement Machine Licence Duty (Special Licences) Regulations 1996
These Regulations, which come into force on 1 July 1996, determine who may apply for a special amusement machine licence. They also allow the Commissioners to make directions concerning the display of a special amusement machine licence and the marking of any machine to which a special licence applies. Regulation 5 is concerned with the application of Schedule 4 to the Betting and Gaming Duties Act 1981 (c. 63) to special licences. Generally the Schedule applies except that—special licences will only be transferable where the holder dies;a person may not surrender a special licence if he would be left holding between one and nine special licences after that surrender;the requirements to be observed by a licence holder imposed by paragraph 12 of the Schedule will not apply.
