Backing for casino
The establishment of a casino complex in the South Island should be supported by the South Island Promotion Association, its executive council decided yesterday. The council will recommend to the association’s annual conference that it support the National Travel Association’s efforts to bring in legislation to allow a casino. The council’s chairman, Mr T. Home, said that it was better for the association’s membership to make the decision and not the executive because it was a controversial subject. Mr K. Bolingbroke, chairman of the council’s liaison committee, said that it was immaterial whether the casino was supported by S.I.P.A. ■ ’ “But we have persuaded the Travel Association to locate the casino in the South Island rather than the North Island.”
