9 - Mandatory conditions – converted casino premises licences
17.52. A notice shall be displayed at all entrances to the casino stating that no person under the age of 18 will be admitted.
17.53. Casinos with converted licences, and that have a gambling area of over 200m2, must offer a minimum non-gambling area equivalent to at least 10 percent of its total gambling area. In determining the floor area of the gambling area, all areas in which facilities for gambling are provided should be taken into account. These areas must be readily available to customers (for example, offices, kitchen areas, employee areas will not count). They may include, but should not consist exclusively of, lavatories and lobby areas. The area must also include recreational facilities for casino customers that are available for use when the casino is open; where there is more than one area each area must contain recreational facilities. No gambling facilities may be offered in the non-gambling areas.
