## Explanatory note

(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations prescribe certain fees under the Gambling Act 2005 (“the Act”).
Regulations 4 to 7 set fees in connection with club gaming permits and club machine permits under Schedule 12 to the Act. That Schedule applies in Scotland only in respect of members' clubs, commercial clubs and miners' welfare institutes which do not hold a certificate or licence under the Licensing (Scotland) Act 1976 authorising the sale of alcohol.
Regulation 8 prescribes a fee of £50 under section 282(2)(b) of the Act. That section authorises up to two Category C or D gaming machines to be made available on alcohol licensed premises if the person who holds the relevant licence has notified the Licensing Board of an intention to make gaming machines available and has paid the prescribed fee.
