Gambling Regulation Act 2003

If a permit is issued to a body corporate:

Section 5.7.7(2): A person nominated in the application for the permit and approved by the Commission is liable under this Act as a permit holder.

Section 5.7.7(3): If the permit holder does not have a person who has been approved by the Commission, the directors or members of the committee of management of the permit holder are severally liable under this Act as a permit holder.

Section 5.7.7(7): Nomination and approval by the Commission do not limit the liability of the permit holder under this Act while that person is the nominee.

Therefore nominee and permit holder may both be liable.
