HC Deb 17 July 1969 vol 787 c163W
Mr. Arthur Lewis

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether, in view of the recent attempts of the Mafia to take over control of Great Britain's gambling and gaming casinos, using the profits for purposes including the drug trade and transferring them to overseas banking accounts, he will introduce further legislation to control gaming and gambling.

Mr. Callaghan

No. The Gaming Act, 1968 was designed as a protection against the infiltration of criminal interests into casinos, and I have no reason to suppose that its provisions are inadequate.
