This so-called &#8220;football stock market&#8221; declared modifications to its dividend system on Monday (March 8th) and then went into administration on Friday. The Gaming Commission subsequently revoked the operator&#8217;s remote gambling permit. However, the commission did not suggest that MacArthur&#8217;s departure was linked to these occurrences.<\/p>\n<p>The National Audit Office also censured the regulatory body, which in a 2020 report stated it lacked sufficient resources to fulfill its duties.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;On behalf of the Board, I would like to express gratitude to Neil for his commitment and service to the Gaming Commission over a considerable period,&#8221; said Bill Moyes, Chair of the Commission. &#8220;We have accomplished a great deal during his tenure, and Neil can be proud of the advancement the organization has made during his time as Chief Executive.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Gardener joined the Gaming Commission in 2009 as Executive Director and was elevated to Deputy Chief Executive in June 2020.
