Casino Panel Reasserts Independence
As reported by the icWales: "The head of a body charged with advising the
Government on the choice of the first super-casino for the UK reasserted his
independence during a public hearing today. "Professor Stephen Crow,
chairman of the Casino Advisory Panel (CAP), was speaking in Cardiff today,
where the proposal of the city's local authority to be allowed to host a
regional casino was being heard. Cardiff is one of seven shortlisted
locations around the UK the CAP is visiting. "The bid to establish a
super-casino at London's Millennium Dome has been mired in controversy in
recent months after Deputy Prime Minister John Prescott was found to have
stayed at the ranch of Philip Anschutz, the owner of Anschutz Entertainment
Group, which bought the Dome in 2002."
