The Economic Development Minister has confirmed there is another casino licence up for grabs on the Island.

Allan Bell confirmed in the House of Keys this week that an application to set up a casino at Mount Murray has been received by his Department.

The Minister also confirmed that the Council of Ministers has asked the DED to look into the matter, and that a decision is due soon.

Mr Bell says another casino could also be good news for the construction industry [play clip]
