This transfer of power is the final step in separating the regulation of liquor and gambling in Victoria.
The changes form part of the response to the Royal Commission into the Casino Operator and Licence and will allow for improved regulation of gambling and casino operators in Victoria.
The Victorian Gambling and Casino Control Commission (VGCCC) was established 1 January 2022 as the dedicated body to regulate gambling. The VGCCC has regulated liquor in the 6 months that followed but that power has now transferred to LCV.
To allow for a smooth transition, liquor licensees can continue to direct their enquiries to the VGCCC at 1300 182 457 or contact@vgccc.vic.gov.au. However, future communication will come from Liquor Control Victoria.
