Buttigieg Paul
Details
Following a licence review of Mr Paul Buttigieg’s Personal Management Licence (PML), the Commission determined the Licensee breached paragraph 1 of the general conditions attached to personal licences under Section 75 of the Gambling Act 2005 (the Act) between December 2019 and October 2020 and issued him with a warning under section 117(1)(a) of the Act.
As the PML holder acting as Director of Anti-money Laundering and Money Laundering Reporting Officer for licensed operators Ladbrokes Betting and Gaming Limited and LC International Limited (the “Operating Licensees”), Mr Buttigieg failed to take all reasonable steps to ensure that the way in which he carried out his responsibilities in relation to licensed activities did not place the Operating Licensees in breach of their licence conditions, namely:
Ladbrokes Betting and Gaming Limited:
- Licence condition 12.1.1, paragraphs 2 and 3 – Anti-money laundering-Prevention of money laundering and terrorist financing
LC International Limited:
- Licence condition 12.1.1, paragraphs 1,2 and 3 – Anti-money laundering-Prevention of money laundering and terrorist financing
- Licence condition 12.1.2 - Anti-money laundering – Measures for operators based in foreign jurisdictions
Mr Buttigieg has been cooperative, open and transparent throughout our engagement with him.
