Casino plan faces further delays
A plan opposed by the city council leader to create a new
casino in Nottingham has been put on hold. The Glasshouse on
Huntingdon Street is to house students. Plans to have a bingo
hall on the first floor were replaced with the casino scheme.
These have met with just one objector - the local ward
councillor and city leader Jon Collins. The council's executive
board has now decided to defer a decision on the plans until a
future meeting. Neither police nor planning officers raised any
objections to the casino, but Mr Collins said he feared
increased late night noise.

Island casino idea to be debated
A public consultation is being held into plans for a casino
on Jersey. The States' Economic Development Department has
announced it will carry out a full consultation within the next
few months. A proposal for a casino was defeated in the States
last year, after worries it would increase problem gambling.
Assistant Economic Development Minister Alan MacLean said the
debate had been mishandled and there are plans for a commission
to regulate casinos.
Supporters say a casino would bring extra tourists to the
island and generate more income for the States. But
others - including clergy on Jersey - say it will increase
problem gambling. The States rejected a previous casino
proposal in 2003. Last year, politicians agreed to allow
online bingo and setting up a gambling commission.
