| 释义 | 獎券活動 A contest where the outcome is mainly determined through the operation of chance, the disposition of prizes by lot: Taylor v Smetten (1883) 11 QBD 207 (DC). It includes a raffle, a sweepstake, tse fa, hung piu, po piu, any competition for money or other property success in which involves guessing or estimating the results of future events, or of past events the results of which are not generally known; or does not depend to a substantial degree upon the exercise of skill by the competitors; and any game, method, device or scheme for distributing or allotting prizes by lot or chance, whether promoted, conducted or managed in or outside Hong Kong: Gambling Ordinance (Cap 148) s 2. A contest where the primary determinant is skill is called a competition: Imperial Tobacco Ltd & Anor v A-G [1980] 1 All ER 866, [1981] AC 718 (HL). There must be some actual contribution made by the participants in return for obtaining a chance to take part in the lottery: Reader’s Digest Assn Ltd v Williams [1976] 3 All ER 737, 1 WLR 1109 (DC). The concept of a lottery is that of a multipartite arrangement under which a pool or fund is created and then distributed or alloted to persons selected either by chance or according to the outcome of some sporting events, but not that type of gambling which consisted a bilateral wagering agreement under which there was a reciprocal risk of loss: A-G v Chan Wah [1946-1972] HKC 684 (HC). Lotteries are unlawful unless they are authorised by the government under statutory law or a licence granted under the Gambling Ordinance: Gambling Ordinance (Cap 148) s 4. Lawful lottery is held by the Government Lotteries Management Committee under the Government Lotteries Ordinance (Cap 334). The Hong Kong Jockey Club also holds lottery under the Betting Duty Ordinance (Cap 108). See also Betting; Gambling; Gaming. 某ㄧ項比賽，該項比賽的後果主要是通過機會運作而決定，而獎品則通過抽籤處置：Taylor v Smetten (1883) 11 QBD 207 (DC)。它包括抽獎；大馬票字花；紅票；舖票；任何為金錢或其他財產而作的競賽，而競賽的取勝─涉及猜測或估計未來事件的結果，或猜測或估計仍未廣泛地被知悉的過去事件結果；或在極大程度上並非依賴競賽者的技巧運用；及任何經抽籤或碰機會而分發或分配獎品的博彩遊戲、方法、設計或計劃，不論該等獎券活動是否在香港境內或境外籌辦、經營或管理：《賭博條例》（第148章）第2條。以技術為主要決定因素的比賽稱為競賽：Imperial Tobacco Ltd & Anor v A-G [1980] 1 All ER 866, [1981] AC 718 （上議院）。此活動的參與者必須付出一些實質的代價，以取得參與該獎券活動的機會：Reader’s Digest Assn Ltd v Williams [1976] 3 All ER 737, 1 WLR 1109 (DC)。獎券活動的概念是一種多方參與的安排，在創立了賭注或基金後，將該等賭注分發或分配予根據機會選擇的人士，或根據某些體育活動的比賽結果，但是與由雙邊打賭協議組成並帶有交互損失危機的賭博不同：A-G v Chan Wah [1946-1972] HKC 684 （高等法院）。獎券活動均屬非法，除非根據法規由政府批准或根據《賭博條例》所發牌照批准：《賭博條例》（第148章）第4條。合法的獎券活動由政府獎券管理委員會根據《政府獎券條例》（第334章）持有。香港賽馬會亦根據《博彩稅條例》持有獎券活動。另見 Betting; Gambling; Gaming。n. |
