Last month the commission published the report by Adam Bell,SC,which found The Star was unfit to hold a casino licence,with chief commissioner Philip Crawford accusing the company of “breathtaking institutional arrogance”.
In response to the report,the casino group said it was willing to do “whatever necessary” to restore its suitability as an operator and appointed an independent monitor as well as committing to a cultural overhaul.
The renewal plan,scheduled to be completed by the end of 2024,will be run by an executive sponsor and tracked by international law firm Allen&Overy,which will act as the group’s independent monitor.
