Alderney Island Warns that Online Casino is Expensive to Run
|
The UK has been introduced to the notion of
online gaming. It seems that the UK is looking into acquiring laws that
will make online gaming legally operated in the UK. In the meantime, the
UK has been discussing about what would be the results if online gaming
were to open up. Alderney’s Gambling Control Commission has stated that
they are concerned about this UK decision as it may leave online gaming
not as regulated as people would like. Online casinos need constant care
and the UK Gambling Commission is worried that the online casinos will
not be monitored enough. The Gambling Commission has also stated that
although the UK legislators think that by legalizing online casinos in
their country, it will inevitably lead to financial gain. The Gambling
commission states otherwise and claims that running online casinos is a
very heavy burden on a country. There are investment issues to consider
when thinking of who would finance the online casinos and the actual
personnel involved running the online casinos; it can be a burden on a
country that is not prepared. The Alderney Gaming Control Commission is
just concerned that the UK does not really know what they are getting
themselves into and that they may not have taken all expenses into
consideration. The Gaming Control Commission is concerned that the UK is
not equipped well enough to handle this situation and may actually feel
a drawback from it and not take it as the benefit it has been thinking
having online casinos within the country will be.
As of right now online casinos are still illegal in the UK but the
Alderney Isle which is owned by the UK has operating online casinos. The
difference is that Alderney is run by its own government and cannot be
legislated by UK policies. The government of Alderney is close to the UK
but its government policy is an independent one that will not be
influenced by UK law makers. However, the influence of Alderney having
online casinos, does have an impact, although not legally, on the
British citizens wish to get online casinos.
Many online casinos are run out of Alderney and their operation is one
that is well respected in the gaming world. Alderney is being cautious
about warning the UK about the financial issues involved with running an
online casino. Skeptics have suggested that the worry comes from
Alderney being scared to lose online casinos business to the UK, but
representatives from both sides have assured that that is not the case
and that there is enough business in online casinos to go around.
Another place to be discussing operation of online casinos is Guernsey
which is a Channel Island very close to Alderney. The internet access
and general technological level of this Island are said to be very high.
One can expect that despite all the warnings that the UK may be getting,
it will still do whatever is in its heart and what it wants too.
