That Order, amongst other things, permits the advertising of licensed betting offices through advertisements in a material form.\nThese Regulations amend regulation 4 of the 1986 Regulations to make it clear that the restrictions set out in that regulation will not apply to advertisements published in a material form. They also remove a reference in regulation 4 to section 10(6)(b)(iii) of the Betting, Gaming and Lotteries Act 1963, which is repealed by the said Order.",
