The Queensland Government has confirmed that The Star Gold Coast licence suspension will be extended for another year due to ‘slow progress’, saying the operator must ‘continue to implement and embed key deliverables under its remediation plan.’
The move follows advice from special manager Nicholas Weeks, who is also special manager for The Star Sydney, who reported that progress was slower than anticipated due to The Star group’s ‘recent financial challenges and uncertainty.’
Queensland’s acting Attorney-General Jarrod Bleijie said: “The Crisafulli Government has the highest standards when it comes to the integrity of casino operations in Queensland. We will continue to closely monitor The Star’s remediation progress to ensure key milestones are met. This deferral does not prevent us from taking immediate action should The Star fail to meet its remediation obligations.”
The move mirrors that of the NSW government’s decision to defer The Star Sydney casino licence by a year.
