Gaming-supplier registration scope narrowed in one respect under the new IGCO regime: upstream content aggregators that do not distribute directly to BCLC may no longer require registration. This is a technical clarification of platform-distribution scope rather than a fundamental restructuring of how BC organises supplier access, but it is directly relevant to any supplier structuring its BC relationship through an intermediary rather than direct BCLC contracting. No other distribution or platform-rule change was identified this cycle; the core distribution channel through BCLC itself remains unchanged.
