SUPERCASINOS AND REFERENDA
Early day motion 633, tabled 15 January 2007 by John Hemming (Liberal Democrat). Signed by 28 members.
That this House notes that there are many uncertainties relating to the proposals to have more larger casinos; further notes that there is certainty that there will be some people with a greater gambling problem for which there is little psychological support; recognises that there are downsides as well as upsides to the establishment of a regional casino; believes there should be a local debate in any area suggested; and calls for a local referendum in any area chosen for a regional casino.
Signatures by party: Labour 13, Liberal Democrat 9, Conservative 3, DUP 1, Plaid Cymru 1, Social Democratic and Labour Party 1.
