Queensland requires gaming machines to be sold or destroyed after licence changes
Source: OLGR Queensland
Queensland’s Office of Liquor and Gaming Regulation says electronic gaming machines must be disposed of within one month after it approves a reduction in a venue’s machines or accepts a licence-surrender notice. Machines may be sold only to another licensee; machines that cannot be sold must be crushed, and operators needing more time must apply to store them.
Queensland licensees must arrange compliant disposal within the stated period or apply for storage.
