The UK Gambling Commission has decided to take a series of measures to prevent “unscrupulous operators” from sub-dividing their premises, whether artificially or temporarily, in order to obtain multiple licenses and operate a higher number of slot machines.
This announcement comes while industry operators are waiting for the government’s actions to temper the financial crisis bingo halls and gaming machine venues are experiencing. Many of said halls were forced to get rod of thousands of slot machines due to the new regulations.
According to Stuart Ross, Managing Director of Gamestec Leisure, gaming companies have in their hands the future of pubs accross the United Kingdom. Gamestec Leisure is one of the most important gaming services companies in the country and provides services to 40,000 gaming venues, including several pubs.
“Companies like Gamestec must play their part in regenerating the pub trade,” Ross commented. “We are actively looking at how we can work with our customers to open up new revenue streams, increase pub footfall and maximise the cashbox takings of SWP and AWP machines.”
