The cost of a selection is $2.

However, if a player makes selections—

The Commission may permit players to make a selection by any 1 or more of the following means:

A player who marks a coupon must mark, by hand, 1 or more boxes on a board on the coupon with a line that does not extend beyond the outline of the box of the number marked.

A board on a coupon that is not marked by hand in accordance with subclause (1), but is marked by a machine or some other means, is invalid and must not be processed by the retailer.

Rules 11, 12, and 13 to 17 apply to a ticket issued in printed form by a terminal.

Rules 11, 12A, 13(1) and (3), and 15 apply to a ticket issued electronically.

Each selection on a ticket is a separate entry for a game.

A ticket is the only proof of a selection and is accordingly the only valid basis for claiming a prize.

The following items have no monetary or prize value and do not in any circumstances constitute evidence of the purchase of a ticket or a selection:

A ticket issued in printed form by a terminal may be cancelled only if, on the same day that it is purchased, it is returned to the issuing retailer before the close of ticket sales on that day.

A ticket issued in printed form by a terminal purchased on the day of drawing and eligible for that drawing may be cancelled only if on that day it is returned to the issuing retailer before ticket sales for the game close.

On cancellation of a ticket issued in printed form by a terminal, the player is entitled to a refund from the retailer equal to the cost of the ticket.

If a ticket issued in printed form by a terminal for a game is cancelled, all selections recorded on the ticket are cancelled.

This rule is subject to rules 13(4), 17(7), 37(2), and 44(5).

A ticket issued electronically may be cancelled only by the Commission and only if—

If a ticket issued electronically is cancelled, all selections recorded on the ticket are cancelled.

A player is solely responsible for verifying that the selections recorded or displayed on the ticket correspond with those that the player made or requested and that the game number and date of drawing are correct, either, as the case may be,—

By accepting a ticket issued in printed form by a terminal, the player is taken to have accepted that the selections recorded on the ticket correspond with those that the player made or requested.

Neither the Commission nor any other retailer is in any circumstances liable for any errors or omissions in respect of the information recorded on any ticket (whether details of selection, game numbers, or otherwise).

Cancellation of a ticket under rule 12 constitutes a player’s or other claimant’s only remedy if there is an error or omission on a ticket.

The Commission may, but is not required to, permit a player to make an advance selection by advising a retailer, or indicating electronically, that the player wishes to make an advance selection.

In all other respects, the selection must be made in accordance with these rules.

The Commission may, but is not required to, permit a player to make a multi-draw selection for 2 or more consecutive games by—

In all other respects, the selections must be made in accordance with these rules.

If a ticket for a multi-draw selection that is issued in printed form by a terminal entitles the bearer of the ticket to be paid a prize, the bearer of the ticket must, on surrender of the ticket, be issued with a substitute ticket for any games entered that have not been drawn at the time the ticket is surrendered.

A players’ agent may, at premises approved by the Commission, accept completed coupons on behalf of a player, forward the coupons to the terminal of the players’ agent for the issue of a ticket, and then forward the ticket to the player.

A ticket issued in accordance with subclause (1) is for the game next following the game current at the time the ticket is issued.

In addition to receiving from a player the cost of his or her selections, a players’ agent is entitled to charge the player a fee for having his or her coupon processed and forwarding the ticket to the player.

The amount of the fee charged in accordance with subclause (3) is the amount approved by the Commission.

If, at the time of processing a coupon, any selection is found to be invalid or deficient, the players’ agent processing the coupon must,—

A player who uses a players’ agent must bear and accept (without recourse to either the Commission or the players’ agent) the consequences of any failure to win a prize or prizes due to delays, errors, or omissions on the part of a players’ agent in processing coupons or that arise from loss of coupons or tickets in transit.

Tickets issued to players using the services of a players’ agent may not be cancelled.

Drawings must be conducted daily in accordance with the Act at times and places, and in accordance with the methods, policies, and procedures, determined by the Commission.

Drawings must be made using the equipment determined for the purpose by the Commission.

At each drawing there must be randomly selected the winning number.

The prize pool for a game must be determined by the Commission, but must be an amount of not less than 55% of the turnover for the game.

The Commission may, if it thinks fit, set aside from out of the prize pool for a game an amount, up to a maximum amount of 15% of ticket sales for the game, to be paid into the prize reserve fund under rule 30.

The available prize pool for a game therefore comprises—

The prize divisions in a game are as follows:

The prize pool for a game must be allocated between the prize divisions as follows:

The available prize pool or, as applicable, a particular division or divisions of the available prize pool must also include—

In all prize divisions (except divisions 2 and 6) the allocation of the available prize pool between prize divisions is not subject to rounding off.

For the purposes of subclause (1)(b) to (f),—

For the purposes of subclause (2)(a),—

For the purposes of rule 23, the Commission—

The Commission may revoke a determination made under subclause (1)(a) and make another determination under that subclause that takes effect after the division 1 prize pool has been won or allocated under the determination being revoked.

The Commission must, as soon as is reasonably practicable after making a determination or a nomination under subclause (1), give public notice of the determination or nomination in the manner that the Commission thinks fit.

This rule applies if, as a result of any drawing, there is no division 1 winning selection for a game.

The portion of the available prize pool for the game that was allocated to division 1 in that drawing must be added, subject to the restrictions in subclause (3), to the division 1 allocation for the next game (jackpot).

A jackpot may not occur—

If a jackpot may not occur because of subclause (3), the division 1 allocation must be added to the prize pool allocation for the next lowest prize division with 1 or more winning selections.

This rule applies if there is no division 1 winning selection in a game on a specified date.

The prize pool allocation for division 1 for that game (including any jackpot under rule 23(1)) must be added to the prize pool allocation for the next lowest prize division with 1 or more winning selections.

The prize for a division 2 winning selection is $10,000.

The total available prize pool that may be allocated from the prize reserve fund to division 2 in a game is $250,000.

If, in any game, the payment of all division 2 winning selections would exceed $250,000, then the $250,000 allocated to that division must be shared equally between each player or other claimant with a division 2 winning selection in accordance with rule 27.

Subclause (1) is subject to subclause (3) and rules 24 and 26.

This rule applies if—

The Commission must pay each player with a division 2 winning selection—

If, in any game, there is more than 1 winning selection in any prize division (except division 6), the prize money allocated to that division must be shared equally between each player or other claimant with a winning selection in the division.

On a sharing of the prize allocation for any prize division, the amounts distributed to each player or other claimant with a winning selection must be rounded as follows:

Any money left over after the rounding process required by subclause (2) has been carried out must be paid into the prize reserve fund.

Each winning selection is eligible for 1 prize only.

If, in any drawing, there is no winning selection in a prize division below division 1, then that portion of the prize pool allocated to that prize division must be added to the prize pool allocated to the next lowest prize division in the game with a winning selection.

If there is no lower prize division with a winning selection, the portion of the prize pool concerned must be added to the total available prize pool for the next game.

The Commission must pay into the prize reserve fund—

The Commission may, either before or after a drawing, allocate from the prize reserve fund any sum of money that it sees fit—

The results of each drawing must be displayed by retailers in their Bullseye sales premises as soon as practicable after each drawing and may also be published in any other manner that the Commission may determine.

The information displayed and published must include—

The Commission must maintain a record of the results of a drawing for at least 12 months after the drawing.

The Commission may publish the name of any division 1 prize winner who, on the prize claim form, authorises the publication of his or her name as a prize winner.

The Commission may—

In subclause (1), draw means a draw that—

Any sum or sums of money for extraordinary prizes must be allocated from the prize reserve fund.

This rule is not affected by rule 28 (which provides that each winning selection is eligible for 1 prize only).

Prizes payable to players are payable in prize money, as non-cash prizes, or as a bonus ticket (as the case may be).

A prize that is won through a ticket issued in printed form by a terminal and is payable to a player in accordance with these rules may be claimed from and including the day following the drawing as a result of which the prize has been won.

That prize is available for payment only when the terminal and the Commission’s online gaming computer system are operating.

In all cases, the determination of prize entitlement is subject to the ticket validation requirements set out in rule 36.

A ticket issued in printed form by a terminal must in all circumstances be regarded by the Commission and by retailers as being owned by the physical possessor (the bearer) of the ticket determined in accordance with these rules.

The person named on a duly completed prize claim form must be treated as the bearer of the ticket accompanying the prize claim form.

For the purposes of rule 34(3), if more than 1 person is named on a prize claim form, the person first named must be treated as the bearer of the accompanying ticket.

Even though a ticket bears the name or other identification of another person or a syndicate, retailers—

The surrender of a ticket to a retailer and the receipt by the bearer of the ticket of a prize payable in respect of the ticket is a good and complete discharge of the Commission’s obligations, despite any notice the Commission may have of the alleged right, title, interest, or claim of any other person or persons to the prize.

Neither the Commission nor any other retailer is responsible or liable as a result of the payment of a prize to the bearer of any lost or stolen ticket, whether or not advice of the loss or theft has been reported or notified to the Commission before payment of the prize.

In addition to any other requirements in these rules, the requirements in subclause (2) or, as the case may be, subclause (3) apply before a ticket is regarded as a valid prize winning ticket.

For a ticket issued in printed form by a terminal,—

For a ticket issued electronically,—

A ticket purchased by or on behalf of a commercial syndicate is void and ineligible for a prize.

Tickets purchased by or on behalf of a commercial syndicate may not be cancelled.

The Commission must not replace a ticket that is invalid under this rule.

A person does not obtain a financial gain by receiving any payment that represents the person’s proportional share (based on the amount the person paid towards the tickets purchased by or on behalf of the syndicate) of any prize.

If a ticket fails to pass all the ticket validation requirements set out in rule 36, the ticket is void and ineligible for any prize.

The Commission may, if it thinks fit, replace an invalid ticket with a ticket of equivalent sales price for any subsequent game.

Despite anything in this Part, the following provisions apply to all prizes won through tickets issued electronically:

Rule 42 (which relates to prizes of more than $1,000) does not apply to prizes won through tickets issued electronically, but the rest of the rules in this Part apply to those prizes.

All prizes must be claimed within 12 months from the date on which the winning numbers were drawn.

Any prize not claimed within 12 months in the manner set out in these rules is forfeited, and the unclaimed prize money or the cash value of any unclaimed non-cash prize or bonus ticket must be paid into the prize reserve fund.

If the prize (whether prize money, non-cash prizes, or bonus tickets, or a combination) that may be claimed for any 1 ticket is $1,000 or less, a claimant may either present the ticket to any retailer or submit a claim to the Commission for payment.

Retailers are authorised to pay any prize for up to 12 months from the date on which the winning numbers were drawn.

Retailers must pay the bearer of a ticket winning $1,000 or less presented within that 12-month period if all the ticket validation requirements and other requirements set out in these rules have been satisfied.

If the retailer is for any reason unable to validate the claimant’s ticket, or is not authorised to pay the prize, or the claimant decides to submit the claim direct to the Commission, the claimant must make the claim direct to the Commission in the manner and on the basis set out in rule 42.

If the prize (whether prize money, non-cash prizes, or bonus tickets, or a combination) that may be claimed on any 1 ticket is more than $1,000, a claimant may make a claim for payment either direct to the Commission or through another retailer.

The payment of the prize may be made only by the Commission.

Claims for prizes submitted direct to the Commission may be either—

The procedure for prize claims made through a retailer (other than the Commission) is as follows:

If a claim for a prize is submitted to the Commission without a duly completed prize claim form, the Commission, before paying any prize, may require the person making the claim to complete a prize claim form.

The Commission must pay a claimant under rule 42 in the manner set out in subclause (2) of this rule if all the ticket validation requirements set out in these rules have been satisfied.

The Commission must pay—

For the purposes of subclause (2)(a),—

A cheque posted to the claimant’s address as specified on the prize claim form must be treated as having been received by the claimant on the third day after the cheque is posted.

The Commission must pay a claimant under this rule only if all the ticket validation requirements set out in rule 36 have been met.

If a ticket is not validated by the Commission, the claim must be refused and the claimant notified promptly of the refusal.

If the ticket validation requirements and the other requirements of these rules are satisfied in respect of a division 6 prize, that prize must not be paid and satisfied monetarily.

The prize must instead be paid and satisfied by the issue of a bonus ticket for the next Bullseye game following the issue of the ticket.

The bonus ticket must be issued to,—

A bonus ticket must be chosen on a random basis by the Commission’s computer system.

Despite subclause (1), when a person claims a division 6 prize but there is no game on sale,—

Despite subclause (1), when a person presents a bonus ticket for validation but there is no game on sale,—

The monetary value for each division 6 winning selection is $2.

A bonus ticket issued in printed form by a terminal to a player in accordance with subclause (1) may not be cancelled.

The Commission may, if it sees fit, at any time decide to cease to offer (withdraw) Bullseye.

If the Commission decides to withdraw Bullseye it must, as soon as is reasonably practicable, announce to the public (in the manner the Commission sees fit) the date on which Bullseye will be withdrawn.

For a ticket issued in printed form by a terminal, if a player has made an advance game entry or multi-draw selection for a game and Bullseye is withdrawn, the player may either—

For a ticket issued in printed form by a terminal, if, for any reason, a drawing for Bullseye to which an advance game entry or multi-draw selection relates is not held, the player, despite rule 17(7), is entitled,—

If a ticket is not cancelled under subclause (2) within 12 months, the money paid to the Commission for the issue of the ticket must be transferred into the prize reserve fund.

For a ticket issued electronically, if, for any reason, a drawing for Bullseye to which a multi-draw selection relates is withdrawn or not held, the player is entitled to a refund equal to the cost of his or her selections for each game for which a drawing was not held.

Any money that is not won in the last game of Bullseye before its withdrawal must be paid into the prize reserve fund.

Neither the Commission nor any other retailer is, in any circumstances, liable for any loss (direct or indirect) suffered by a player, a bearer of a ticket, or any other person—

All decisions of the Commission on questions of fact concerning Bullseye (including decisions as to the validity of tickets, the identity of the bearer of any ticket, the determination of prize winners, and the amount and division of prize money) are final and binding on all players and any other person or persons concerned for any reason with these matters.
