Does anybody want to comment on the fact local authorities have the right to determine whether gaming facilities such as amusement arcades and what are loosely described as casinos operate in their area? Is there any objection to giving local authorities a veto on such matters under the new legislation such as they have under the 1956 Act? I take that silence to indicate there is no objection to it.
