Details
A licence review under Section 116 of the Act was commenced following information provided to the Gambling Commission (the Commission) and key event notices submitted by Grosvenor Casinos Limited (the Licensee). While this review was underway, further intelligence received by the Commission prompted a targeted compliance assessment of one of the Licensee’s venues, which was conducted on 13 June 2025.
The review found failings in the Licensee’s Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Social Responsibility (SR) controls.
It was found that the Licensee had breached the following Licence Conditions (LC):
- LC 12.1.1 paragraph 2 - Prevention of money laundering and terrorist financing
- LC 12.1.1 paragraph 3 - Prevention of money laundering and terrorist financing.
It was also found that the Licensee had failed to comply with the following Social Responsibility Code Provisions (SRCP):
- SRCP 3.4.1 paragraphs (1) (b) and (c) - Premises-based customer interaction
- SRCP 3.4.1 paragraph 2 - Premises-based customer interaction.
Compliance with a SRCP is a condition of the licence by virtue of section 82(1) of the Act.
In line with our Statement of Principles for Licensing and regulation, the Licensee will make a payment in lieu of a financial penalty of £5,012,261. Details of this are set out under the heading Grosvenor Casinos Limited Regulatory Settlement.
