Gambling Consultancy Conference To Scrutinise Committee's Decisions
| UK Casino Times > Casino News 01 April 2004 Gambling Consultancy Conference To Scrutinise Committee's Decisions The Gambling Consultancy Limited in conjunction with Osney Media is presenting a Post Scrutiny Committee conference to discuss the latest developments in the deregulation of the UK casino and gaming industry. The discussion forum will be held on May 20 in central London. The publication of the findings of the UK parliament's Scrutiny Committee will have a major impact on the final form and content of any future gambling legislation. Indeed, it is widely recognised that its published recommendation will heavily influence the major strategic and investment decisions taken by operators during 2004 and beyond. With this in mind, the conference has been designed to bring together all the major organisations and companies affected by the publication of the report with those individuals who have been responsible for drafting it. The event's interactive round-table discussion format will offer a unique opportunity for delegates to get feedback from members of the Scrutiny Committee as well as leading figures in the UK gambling industry. Commenting on the conference, Anton Kaszubowski of The Gambling Consultancy said, "While the Scrutiny Committee's report will be publicly available by April 8, this event aims to be the industry's first major forum to digest and debate the philosophy and rationale underpinning the report's recommendations. The conference will be an effective tool for getting to grips with many of the key issues and the likely practical implications emerging out of the Scrutiny Committee's findings, which will determine the growth and structure of our industry over the next decade." Anton Kaszubowski added, "This event is designed for anyone with a general interest in strategy, regulations or low, and specifically for those with a particular concern for licensing, planning permission issues and dealing with authorities." |
