Hotel Permit Holder v. State: Supervisory Responsibility and Representative Qualification Under Hotel Act

§ 8 Abs. 1 und 2 GaG, Art. 65 Abs. 1 BGG; Hotel Permit Holder v. State: Supervisory Responsibility and Representative Qualification Under Hotel Act: 1 and 2 GaG) against a permit holder who employed an unqualified representative, finding that the lower court erred in equating the representative's qualification requirements with those of the permit holder. The court reasoned that while the representative assumes equal responsibility for compliance with operational duties, the law and legislative history do not require the representative to meet the same stringent formal qualification prerequisites as the permit holder; demonstrated practical experience sufficient for shared operational responsibility is adequate. Consequently, the representative's long practical experience in the field justified the permit holder's delegation, and the representative's subsequent unauthorized hiring of personnel was deemed an isolated overstepping of informal authority outside the permit holder's knowledge.
