No changes to gaming table cap until 2022, Macau gov’t says

Don’t expect any changes to Macau’s table gaming cap anytime soon.

Secretary for Economy and Finance Lionel Leong Vai Tac said Thursday there will be no changes to the government’s policy of capping the number of live dealer gaming tables until at least the end of 2022, GGRAsia reported.

Speaking during a Macau Legislative Assembly plenary sitting, Leong said the government is standing by the cap it already set, which aims to limit the total number of tables to 3 percent compound annual expansion from a base of 5,485 tables recorded in 2012.

“The allocation of gaming tables will depend on whether their proposals meet our guidelines,” Leong said, according to the news outlet.
