Gilbert Myles MP
will abstain from voting on the Casino Control Bill because
of a potential conflict of interest. He is indirectly
associated with the Sky City Casino through his involvement
with the Anglican Trust for Women and Children, who benefit
from casino profits.
"Although the connection is indirect,
it is important that members of Parliament demonstrate the
highest standards of personal and public integrity", Mr
Myles
said.
