Queensland’s government extended the deadline for suspending The Star Gold Coast’s casino licence to 31 March 2027, giving The Star Entertainment Group six more months to meet remediation requirements. The decision followed a special manager’s assessment that found progress alongside unresolved priority matters. Attorney-General Deb Frecklington said the extension did not change the government’s expectations; independent supervision will continue.
The Queensland government has moved the suspension date for The Star Gold Coast's casino licence to 31 March 2027. That gives The Star Entertainment Group, the operator, another six months to deal with remediation requirements that are still outstanding. Nicholas Weeks, the special manager, reported "significant progress" in the company's reform initiatives in an August assessment, while also identifying several unresolved priority matters.
