The policy is required by law and the Dunedin policy does not allow new non-casino gambling or ‘pokie’ machine venues and gambling machines within the DCC area. Relocation of gambling venues is permitted only in exceptional circumstances, as set out in the policy. The policy does not affect existing gambling venues.

While the Dunedin City Council must have a Gambling Venue Policy, the Department of Internal Affairs (DIA) is the licensing authority and is responsible for the granting or refusing of gambling licences.
