Hide Ad“This follows the Government’s decision to reduce the maximum stake on B2 gaming products to £2 on April 1, 2019.
“Since then the company has seen a significant fall in gaming machine revenues, in line with the guidance given when the Government’s decision was announced in May 2018.
“A large number of redundancies is anticipated with 4,500 colleagues at risk.
“The Group will look to apply voluntary redundancy and redeployment measures extensively and will be providing support to all colleagues throughout the process.
