B3A lottery machines

Section 235(2)(d) of the Act (opens in new tab) and Regulations under that section define a B3A machine as one where the results of the lottery are determined by the machine and/or the machine displays the results of the lottery without an interval of at least one hour between the sale of the ticket and the announcement of the result.
