A contingency is an approved betting event in South Australia.
Betting operators who are licensed or authorised to operate in SA can only accept bets on contingencies that have been approved by the Liquor and Gambling Commissioner.
It's illegal for a betting operator to take a bet from a person on anything other than an approved contingency.
The commissioner also approves the rules which govern the betting operations of racing clubs, TAB (formerly UBET SA) and licensed bookmakers in SA.
