Full section analysis

Interactive gaming and interactive wagering remain licensable under the Interactive Gaming and Interactive Wagering Regulations 2007, administered by the Financial Services Regulatory Commission's Division of Gaming. Domestic gambling is governed by the Gambling Act 2016, which establishes a body corporate, the Gambling Authority of Antigua and Barbuda, under section 4, with chapters commencing individually by Ministerial Notice in the Gazette under section 2(1) to (6). A Ministerial Notice, No. 50 of 2019, has been issued under section 2, but whether the Authority's own chapter has commenced is not resolved. The Gambling (Resort Casino) Regulations 2017 were made by the Minister under sections 163 and 445 of the Act, and the Gambling (Lotteries, Trade Lotteries and Community Gaming) Regulations 2020 were made under section 444 of the Act as Regulation No. 73 of 2020. The Commission hosts and appears to administer both the offshore and the domestic implementing regulations, including the published Licensing Structure and Fees schedule.
