Bacta's George McGregor to step down from Executive Director - Govt. Relations position
George McGregor, Bacta's Executive Director - Government Relations, has announced that he is moving on from the UK trade association at the end of June.
His departure following the Bacta AGM marks the conclusion of a 21-year association with the trade body. He was an external adviser to Bacta in his role as Managing Director of the public affairs consultancy Interel (now DGA) and has served as Bacta Executive Director since January 2024.
McGregor stated: "In August this year I turn 60 and my intention is to shift gear in my career, moving from a full-on role to project and advisory work. I am incredibly proud of my work with Bacta over the years in helping it achieve tangible benefits for members.
"Between now and my departure, there is still a lot to do. We need to finalise our response to the Gambling Minister on stakes and prizes, conclude our submission to the Gambling Commission's review of gaming machine technical standards, and push hard to see the delivery of the long overdue Gambling White Paper reforms."
John Bollom, Bacta President, added: "We are very sad to see George moving-on but we understand his reasons and wish him well in the future. George is smart, determined and personable. He will leave big boots to fill."
