Peter Cohen, Director of Regulatory Affairs for The Agenda Group and former Executive Commissioner and Chief Executive Officer of the Victorian Commission for Gambling Regulation, provides his insights into last week’s announcement by the NSW Independent Casino Commission (NICC) that it will hold a second inquiry into The Star Sydney’s suitability to hold a casino license.

Peter discusses the NICC’s likely reasoning for holding a second inquiry, the likelihood of Star losing its license, what happens if it does, recent criticisms of NICC chair Philip Crawford, and how the issues facing Star differ from those of local rival Crown Resorts.
