Among other things, these public interest standards
focus on ensuring: minors are prevented from gambling; patrons have the necessary
information with which to make informed choices related to gambling; gambling-related
risks are minimized; and persons negatively affected by gambling have access to
timely and effective information and assistance.
These standards
apply to the BC Lottery Corporation, all service providers, and all commercial
gaming facilities. Some of these standards also apply to gaming event licensees.
They are a condition of being involved in the industry and are effective immediately.
