Crown gets conditional approval to open Sydney casino
Crown Resorts has been given the go-ahead to open its casino in Sydney, 18 months after opening the hotels and restaurants to the public.
The NSW Independent Liquor & Gaming Authority (the ILGA) said the company had been given conditional approval to open its gaming operations.
The authority will continue to monitor the final phase of the restricted suitability assessment for the next 18 months to two years.
“Under the Authority’s supervision, Crown has rebuilt its gaming model from the ground up, which has meant deep structural change around governance, anti-money laundering measures and corporate culture,” ILGA Chairman Philip Crawford said.
