An illustrative (but not exhaustive) list of activities which will be treated as advertising if done for that purpose is set out in subsection (2).

27.Subsection (4) allows the advertising regulations to define what is meant by “vicinity of a Games location” for this purpose and to set the times during which the advertising prohibition will apply.
