(London).- The Rt Hon Stuart Andrew MP became the most senior UK politician to visit a MERKUR Slots venue and he left impressed by what he saw. The state-of-the art MERKUR Slots in Hammersmith, West London opened its doors to a very important guest recently when it welcomed the Minister for Gambling,
Mr Andrew, who was on a fact-finding initiative to experience the latest in low-stake gaming entertainment, was hosted by MERKUR UK General Manager, Sascha Blodau, Director of Public and Political Relations Tony Boulton, Operations Director Steve Ambrose and Head of Compliance, Amanda Kierney.
The visit comes at an extremely important time for the business as the Government’s White Paper on gambling reform maps out the future for the low-stake high street gaming sector.
Reflecting on the visit Tony Boulton said: “We are extremely grateful to the Minister for taking time out of what must be a punishing schedule to look around the fantastic MERKUR Slots 100% digital venue at Hammersmith.
“General Manager Sascha Blodau used the opportunity to explain the unique operational issues which face our sector, demonstrate our status as a highly accomplished high street retailer and detail our industry-leading commitments to safer gambling.
He added: “The White Paper proposals are crucial to the business and having had the opportunity to meet with Sascha, Steve Ambrose and Amanda I’m certain the Minister completed his visit to Hammersmith equipped with a better understanding and appreciation of the business.”
