In Australia and the government for Western Australia has reportedly followed Victoria and New South Wales in announcing that it is to launch an official investigation into the license suitability of casino operator Crown Resorts Limited.
According to a Thursday report from the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, the coming examination is due to be conducted by a royal commission consisting of former Western Australia Supreme Court Judges Neville Owen and Lindy Jenkins with assistance from Colin Murphy, who served as the state’s Auditor General for twelve years from 2006.
