"We've decided to impose a fine of $100 million on The Star, and secondly, to suspend the Star's casino licence," he said.Paul had gambling debts worth more than $1 million, but that wasn't his biggest problemMr Crawford says it's the first time in NSW history that a casino suspension has been imposed."It's giving a real message to the industry that gambling in this country is not illegal but it's got to be done by certain rules.

But an urgent "root cause analysis" was needed before any serious discussion of regaining the licence could begin, Mr Crawford said. "At this point, the commission did not consider this to be in the public interest," Mr Crawford said.

Star Casino set to be fined $100 million after damning report into its operationsThe fine comes after Star Entertainment last month accepted the findings of the NSW Independent Casino Commission, which found it unsuitable to hold a licence for its Sydney casino. They gambled and lost. And not one of its former management will hand back a cent of their bonuses, or spend even one night in jail. A win-win for all concerned I guess. $100 million? If a smal gaming room with 35 poker machines can generate $1.2 million in revenue in a week $100 million for a major casino is literally pocket change and a complete joke…

New app launched in NSW to help people in cardiac arrest access CPR fasterA new app has been launched across New South Wales to help people in cardiac arrest access CPR faster. The GoodSAM app will send out alerts to anyone nearby trained in CPR who might be able to respond before paramedics arrive. Registration for responders will begin over the coming months. Cool idea Geez maybe if they hadn’t forced vaccinations with serious side effects - many being heart issues you wouldn’t need this ? Heart attack, where’s my phone and activate the app. Lol. Remember the Covid-19 app. Get the app Scomo said and how many died and who benefitted from the 60million for the app.
