“Despite the uncomfortable reading at times, Crown has welcomed the Commissioner’s report of the NSW Independent Liquor and Gaming Authority Inquiry. We see it as an opportunity for a complete and comprehensive corporate re-set,” said Crown’s executive chairman Helen Coonan. “Crown has committed to working constructively with ILGA to advance reforms necessary to allow it to give effect to the Restricted Gaming Licence in Sydney.” 

Coonan recognised the need to work with the regulators to restore the public trust in the company. She also confirmed her role as a chairman is temporary and the group is already looking for a suitable candidate.
