Prime Minister Joseph Muscat yesterday inaugurated new offices of the Malta Gaming Authority at SmartCity Malta.

The offices have a floor area of over 2,562 square metres on two floors and feature the latest environmental standards, technological infrastructure and corporate environment. The offices incorporate facilities for press events, networking events, seminars and training for staff.  

In his opening address, Joseph Cuschieri, the MGA's Executive Chairman, highlighted the milestones that have contributed to the success of the gaming authority since its inception in 2004.

He said that new legislation will be a game changer for Malta and will future proof Malta's status as a jurisdiction of excellence. Some of the changes include new consumer protection measures as well as the simplification in the licensing structure from the current model to a Business to Business (B2B) and Business to Consumer (B2C) framework.

This will eliminate duplication of checks and speed up time to market for the operators.

Prime Minister, Dr Joseph Muscat praised the MGA for having put in place a strategy that emphasises innovation and diversity in order to continue attracting investors to Malta.  

The MGA employs 150 people.
