Senior Minister of State Lee Yi Shyan's Reply to Parliament Question on the Extension of Casino Licence Moratorium
Question
Mr Gerald Giam Yean Song: To ask the Minister for Trade and Industry (a) whether the Government plans to extend the moratorium on additional casino licences once the current 10-year moratorium on the current two licences expires in 2016; and (b) whether Singaporeans will be consulted well in advance of any plans to issue additional casino licences.
Oral answer by Mr Lee Yi Shyan, Senior Minister of State for Trade and Industry:
The 10-year moratorium on additional casino licences expires in 2017. During this period, our focus is to work with the two Integrated Resorts to ensure that their attractions and services continue to meet the needs of Singaporeans and enhance Singapore’s tourism appeal.
