CRA imposes fine of $600,000 on Genting Singapore’s Resorts World at Sentosa

The Casino Regulatory Authority of Singapore (CRA) has imposed a financial penalty of $600,000 on Genting Singapore’s Resorts World at Sentosa (RWS) for partially reimbursing the annual entry levy paid by some local casino patrons. This is the highest single financial penalty imposed by the authority to date.
CRA said it started investigations into a possible breach of the Casino Control Act (CCA) upon receiving information from members of the public that they had received complimentary Universal Studios Singapore (USS) tickets when they renewed their annual entry levies.
Its investigations revealed that between 1 February 2011 and 31 May 2011, RWS staff members carried out a marketing programme which gave incentives such as USS tickets, concert tickets and hotel accommodation to locals when they purchased new annual entry levies or renewed their annual entry levies.
About 3,400 local casino patrons were partially reimbursed the cost of the annual entry levy through these means.
RWS had also failed to submit details of this marketing programme to CRA, in contravention of CRA’s reporting requirements. This breach has been taken into consideration by CRA.
Separately, during the course of investigations, CRA discovered that certain documents submitted by RWS staff members to CRA could have been forged, and that false or misleading information could have been provided to CRA. CRA had therefore referred these cases to the Commercial Affairs Department (CAD) for investigation into possible criminal offences.
