The chief executive of the embattled Star Entertainment Group announces he is stepping down, but the body's chairman insists this will not have an impact on whether its NSW licence is reinstated.
Star Entertainment Group head Robbie Cooke has announced his resignation, with chairman David Foster to take on additional responsibilities while a search for his replacement begins.
Robbie Cooke was announced as the head of Star Group in October 2022, a week after a review into the company's casino operations in Queensland found it was unsuitable to hold a casino licence. In a statement, Star Group said Mr Cooke and the board came to the decision that a change in leadership was in the company's best interests.
But last month the NSW Independent Casino Commission announced it would conduct a second inquiry, saying it was not satisfied the casino had done enough to address its failings. Star Entertainment also announced its chief financial officer would step down after nine years with the company.
