(Perth).- Racing and Gaming Minister Paul Papalia has found Crown Perth to be a suitable licensee to operate the Perth Casino. The finding was made as recommended by the Gaming and Wagering Commission (GWC) of Western Australia pursuant to section 21Q of the Casino Control Act 1984.
The suitability assessment was informed by the final report of the Independent Monitor (IM) who approved and monitored the implementation of a comprehensive remediation plan put forward by Crown Perth to become a suitable casino gaming licensee and restore public confidence.
The GWC was assisted by the former Department of Local Government, Sport and Cultural Industries to conduct a suitability assessment of the Perth Casino licensee following the conclusion of the Perth Casino Royal Commission (PCRC) three years ago.
It has now been determined that Crown Perth has been overhauled through a refreshed corporate and governance structure, enhanced employee screening and training models to promote ethical behaviours as well as actions to minimise gambling harm.
Most importantly, Crown Perth has implemented adequate and legislatively compliant anti-money laundering/counter-terrorism financing measures to prevent criminal infiltration at the Perth Casino such as transaction monitoring and technology to flag suspicious patrons with cash above certain thresholds.
Former Independent Monitor and WA Police Assistant Commissioner Paul Steel will continue to oversee casino activities to ensure lawful and responsible operations.
In March 2022, the PCRC concluded that Burswood Nominees Limited, as the Perth Casino licensee, was not a 'suitable person' to continue to hold the casino gaming licence for the Perth Casino due to failures in reducing gambling harm and preventing the proliferation of criminal activity.
