To ask the Scottish Executive what its powers are in respect of applications for new casinos; what powers it has to regulate, or designate, regional casinos, and how many (a) casinos and (b) regional casinos there are in Scotland. We have made it clear that whatever the UK regulatory framework, the position of this devolved government is that new casinos in Scotland will only be agreed if they are licensed by Scottish licensing boards and regulated by conditions set by Scottish ministers.
