Criminal Records Amendment (Spent New South Wales

Convictions) Regulation 2001

under the

Criminal Records Act 1991

His Excellency the Governor, with the advice of the Executive Council, has made the following Regulation under the Criminal Records Act 1991.

BOB DEBUS, M.P.,

Attorney General

Explanatory note

Section 84 of the Casino Control Act 1992 was amended by the Casino Control Amendment Act 2000 to provide that a person the subject of an exclusion order given on the voluntary application of the person under section 79 (3) of that Act (a self-excluded person) who breaches the order is no longer subject to a criminal penalty. Section 8 (5) of the Criminal Records Act 1991 provides that a conviction in respect of an offence which has ceased by operation of law to be an offence is spent immediately it ceased to be an offence if it is prescribed as an offence to which that subsection applies.

The object of this Regulation is to prescribe the former offence of a self-excluded person entering or remaining in a casino to which the exclusion order relates as an offence to which section 8 (5) of the Criminal Records Act 1991 applies.

This Regulation is made under the Criminal Records Act 1991, including sections

8 (5) and 25 (the general regulation-making power).
