New Zealand: Prime Minister defends convention centre and casino deal

2 April 2012

AUCKLAND, New Zealand -- Defending the government's deal with Sky City Casino Prime Minister John Key denied that the extra pokies would create more gambling addicts, Fairfax News reported.

The Prime Minister was criticized over a deal which sees Sky City Casino build a convention centre and receive an increased pokie machine quota, the report said.

Mr Key said that the casino was targeting international visitors over locals and the additional pokie machines would not add to problem gambling, Fairfax News said.
