MACAU BUSINESS
and 15 minutes – but outlined some of the changes that are being considered, sources said. The Gaming Inspection and Coordination Bureau did not field questions at the meeting. Quoting an unnamed source, Inside Asian Gaming
reported that the standards resemble the GLI-11 regimen for gaming devices in casinos developed by Gaming Laboratories International, LLC (GLI). The GLI-11 guidelines for slot machine and other electronic gaming software and hardware have acted as a default standard in Macau for some years. Legislated regulation of slot machines is a long
promised but slowly evolving goal, with promises to issue rules in 2008 coming to nothing. While the introduction of a new technical regime carries a degree of uncertainty for operators and
manufacturers and points to wider regulatory reform, one company official said the release of draft standards is a welcome development. The official, who was represented at the meeting and later briefed on its contents, told GamblingCompliance that, “I’m not expecting anything too restrictive”. The draft was consistent with the Gaming Inspection and Coordination Bureau’s “fairly open- type policy” in that it is “not excluding anyone” from the market, the official said. “It’s always good to have regulations. Then you
know the rules you play to,” the manager said. The Gaming Inspection and Coordination Bureau did not respond to requests for comment by publication time. * Exclusive GamblingCompliance/Macau Business
