RE: UKNM: Competition law/regulation on the web ?

[Bunder, Leslie]

Yes, you have to be careful!<g>


You need to get hold of a copy of the Lotteries and Gaming Act 1976 from

HMSO.


This issue resolves around what is a competition and what is a prize

draw and how it is judged?  


Is there an element of skill involved, who is able to enter the

competition, is it limited to geographical location?  If someone enters

and wins, are you prepared to ship to Japan???
