Gambling CommissionThe Gambling Commission is running a series of training courses throughout the summer, highlighting the issues surrounding illegal gaming machines.

Gaming machines can only be supplied with the correct licences and permissions in place from the Gambling Commission.

At Manco Automatics, we are fully licensed and regulated, allowing us to supply the fruit machines Manchester venues need in order to cater for their customers’ demands.

But not all suppliers can say the same; Rob Burkitt of the Gambling Commission’s Local Authority Liaison Unit says: “Issues around suspected illegal gaming machines are one of the main compliance referrals we make to licensing authorities.”

Training sessions got underway in Bristol on April 10th, and are scheduled to continue throughout the summer of 2014.

However, Manchester seems to have been missed out, and the nearest training session seems to be in Liverpool on July 10th.

It seems a shame that the Gambling Commission did not schedule a date in one of the country’s biggest cities, with a thriving market for gaming machines.

But by working with Manco Automatics, you can rest assured that we are well aware of the rules on fruit machines Manchester venues need to comply with, and can help you to position your gaming machines accordingly.
