About this episode
SkyCity Entertainment Group could soon have the operator license for their three casinos suspended if the Department of Internal Affairs has its way.
It all stems from a complaint related to just a single customer, but this move has already had a huge impact on their share price – and, if the suspension goes ahead, it could be even more damaging.
So how unprecedented is this move, and how does it add to woes the company is already facing after troubles in Australia?
Today on The Front Page, we’re joined by NZ Herald property editor Anne Gibson to discuss the uncertain future ahead for our biggest casino operator.
