“We regulate gambling in the public interest and to maintain public confidence in the industry. In doing this we must be provided with information about those who run or have significant interest in gambling businesses. We revoked this licence because we are not satisfied as to the source of funds used to acquire and support the licensee at the time of the change of corporate control or to whom future profits of the licensee would be paid. We also identified concerns with the suitability of the new controller because of its unsatisfactory history in providing information requested as part of our enquiries.”
