The Treasury is seeking applications for appointment to the Gambling Supervision Commission. The Commission is constituted under the Casino Act 1986 and the duties of the Commission were further broadened with the introduction of the Gambling Supervision Act 2010. The Gambling Supervision Commission was established to:

• Licence and supervise most forms of gambling in the Isle of Man.

• Investigate the character and financial status of any person applying for or holding a gambling licence issued under its remit.

• Ensure that all fees, duty and other monies payable to the Treasury are duly paid and accounted for.

• Ensure that gambling is conducted honestly and fairly, remains free from criminal influence and exploitation and does not cause harm to the public interest, individuals and families.

In accordance with the Gambling Supervision Act 2010, the Treasury is looking for members who have experience of online business and experience of gambling business, to assist the commission in exercising its statutory functions.
