Compliance, enforcement and assurance priorities for the liquor, gaming, wagering and registered club sectors.
Liquor & Gaming NSW (L&GNSW) administers the regulatory framework for the liquor, gaming, wagering, casino and registered clubs sectors in NSW.
This includes undertaking compliance and enforcement activities, providing policy advice to government, licensing certain activities and delivering industry support and education activities.
As part of its role in regulating these sectors, L&GNSW undertakes audit, assurance, regulatory approval, and compliance and enforcement activities. The methods it uses to do this include probity checking, undertaking audits and inspections, investigating offences and taking enforcement action in response to breaches identified.
This Delivery Plan sets out the harms and risks for the liquor, gaming, wagering and registered club industries that we have identified as priority focus areas.
