(Macau).- Chief Executive Fernando Chui Sai On has said the government will review the rules governing VIP gaming rooms when it negotiates the renewal of gaming licences in 2015-2016, Business Daily reports. The newspaper quotes Chui as saying in answer to questions from members of the Legislative Assembly.
He reiterated that 2015-16 is “an appropriate time” for the city to discuss the renewal of the six gaming concessions and sub-concessions, which will expire from 2020 to 2022.
“We have to review the following: the scale of gaming development, the management of VIP rooms, the proportions of gaming and non-gaming elements, professionalisation and upward mobility of gaming employees, the prevention of problem gambling and the social responsibility of gaming operators,” he said.
He did not say whether the practice of junket operators running VIP gaming rooms would be changed.
