Will Casino Canberra Get More Slots?

An Australian Capital Territory lawmaker has proposed legislation that would allow Casino Canberra (l.) to add up to 200 slot machines along with 60 electronic table games.

Australian Labor Party member Gordon Ramsay has proposed a bill that would let Casino Canberra add hundreds of slots and up to 60 electronic table game terminals.

According to the Canberra Times, the plan would end a monopoly on slots now enjoyed by local clubs in the district. Ramsay also called for a limit on slot stakes of AU$5 (US$3.97) per spin, half the limit allowed in clubs.
