When a hotel or registered club applies to increase its gaming machine threshold (GMT) so they can operate more gaming machines, or if a hotel or club changes location, a local impact assessment (LIA) may be required of them.
An LIA looks at the impact to communities of an increase in gaming machines. The LIA process ensures local councils, police and residents have a say in what happens in their community.
LIAs that have been submitted and are pending approval are posted on the LIA public register. You can submit a comment online to a pending LIA. You can also find out which LIAs have been determined (approved).
