A gambling business is to pay £17 million for social responsibility and anti-money laundering failures at its online and land-based businesses. All £17 million will be directed towards socially responsible purposes as part of a regulatory settlement. Additional licence conditions will also be added to ensure a business board member oversees an improvement plan, and that a third-party audit to review its compliance with the Licence Conditions and Codes of Practice takes place within 12 months.
