Paragraph 8 of Schedule 4 of the Gambling Act 2005 provides that:

  • (1) The Commission may delegate a function to:

  • a. a Commissioner;

  • b. a committee consisting of:

  • i. commissioners, or

  • ii. one or more commissioners and one or more employees of the Commission, or

  • c. an employee of the Commission.

  • (2)Sub-paragraph (1) applies to any function of the Commission including in particular:

  • a. a discretionary function

  • b. the function of conducting a review

  • c. the function of determining whether to revoke a licence or of determining whether to impose a requirement to pay a penalty.

The Gambling Commission has approved a scheme of delegations setting out who has delegated authority to make licensing decisions. As part of that scheme the Commission has established a Committee of Commissioners, on which any Commissioner may sit, known as the Regulatory Panel (the Panel).
