The Minister expressed appreciation to Isle of Capri for having extended their exit in order to achieve a seamless transfer to Treasure Bay.
The new operator will upgrade and improve in area of equipment, bring innovation, excitement and a vibrant marketing programme to the casino. Apart from some employees who have elected to accept severance benefits at this time, the remainder of the staff will continue in the employment of Treasure Bay.
This positive development, said the Minister, comes at the time when expanded airlift from Canada, New York and Florida is commencing into Grand Bahama Island.
