UK Gambling Commission lifts VGC Leeds licence suspension

Enforcement & compliance

The Gambling Commission lifted VGC Leeds’ operating licence suspension in November after the casino operator made changes to its leadership, AML controls and staff training. VGC Leeds also committed to an independent audit within six weeks, while the commission said its wider review and monitoring would continue.

VGC Leeds can resume licensed operations, but remains subject to the commission’s review and monitoring.
