The Deputy will be aware that in August, 2006, the Government agreed to the proposal of my predecessor for the establishment of a Committee (the Casino Regulation Committee) to report on the possibilities for a legislative basis for the strict regulation of casino-style operations in the State. The Casino Regulation Committee completed their Report in April of this year. It is a lengthy document which deals with a range of complex and inter-related public policy issues which are now being considered within my Department. Following consideration of the issues, I intend bringing the Report before the Government. As the Report has yet to be presented to Government I do not propose to comment on the Report or any of its recommendations at this time.
