\"\"Following weeks of investigation by the iGaming Post into the planned reopening of casinos in the UK which is expected on the 4th July, we can now confirm that the British Gaming Council (BGC) have released their official guidelines to casino operators on how to reopen under COVID-19 restrictions to ensure the safety of staff and customers.<\/p>\n

As the iGaming Post reported on the 25th May<\/a> plans for reopening of casinos in the UK we now have the official version of those measures which is almost exactly the same with some new guidelines added.<\/p>\n

The guidelines can be viewed here in full HERE<\/a>, but will include as previously reported strict social distancing, limited number of customers per table, queuing for entry to the venue to ensure a limited amount of customers. Also the enforced use of hand sanitiser by all customers entering. The availability of face masks to customers if required along with working hours altered.<\/p>\n
