As a result of those reviews, two of the businesses, BGO and Gan PLC, have had new conditions imposed on their licences and all three will now improve their policies and procedures as well as making payments to progress the work of the National Strategy to Reduce Gambling Harms. The Commission will also be reviewing the actions of the individual Personal Management Licence holders in all three of these cases +
