Rangitīkei District Council adopts new gambling policies

At the Council meeting on Wednesday, 30 April, Rangitīkei District Council adopted its Gambling Venue (Class 4) Policy and its TAB Venue Policy.

April 30, 2025

These policies have been reviewed and consulted on, and no significant changes have been made with only small alterations to adhere to current legislation.

The status quo will remain in place with these new policies, which means that the limit on gaming machines (aka pokies) will remain the same, and no stand-alone TAB venues will be permitted in the district.

Council would like to thank everyone who submitted feedback on these policies.

The adopted policies will be published on our website following a final review for any minor editorial changes
