Mr Richard Caborn (Minister of State (Sport and Tourism), Department for Culture, Media & Sport; Sheffield Central, Labour)
I have made two points. The money laundering directive is about much more than casinos, and the Treasury is discussing it with businesses, banks and regulators. The regulations under the second directive required identity checks on entry, but we are considering how to implement the third directive. It is under discussion with industry, but the lead Department is the Treasury, and the hon. Gentleman will appreciate that the implementation of the third directive has much wider implications than just for casinos.
