<p>All gambling companies providing gambling facilities to consumers in Great Britain
must be licensed by the Gambling Commission and comply with the conditions and codes
of practice of their operating licences. The Gambling Commission expects operators
to obey the laws of other jurisdictions in which they operate, and requires operators
to report any regulatory investigation or finding into their activities in any other
jurisdiction.</p><p><strong> </strong></p><p>Operators must inform the Gambling Commission
if they have a substantial customer base outside of Britain. Where this is the case,
the Gambling Commision asks operators why they do not consider themselves to be acting
illegally by providing gambling facilities in these jurisdictions. This may be because
they are licenced to operate in that jurisdiction, or because they have satisfied
themselves in some other way that they are not breaking the law by providing gambling
facilities. If operators are found to not to be acting in a lawful manner in other
jurisdictions, the Gambling Commission will re-assess their suitability to hold a
licence to offer gambling services in Britain.</p><p> </p>
