The UK’s largest adult gaming centre operator, Talarius, is rejoining trade association BACTA.

The company, which is part of the Australian Tatts Group, stepped down from BACTA in April last year. However, following the recent appointment of John White as BACTA’s new chief executive, the company will once again become a member.

“We are really enthusiastic about John stepping into his new role at BACTA and the direction he believes the association and wider industry should be taking,” said Peter Harvey, Talarius chief operating officer. “His approach will be more successful if adopted universally by the AGC sector, and we wanted to rejoin as soon as possible to play our part.

“We look forward to working with BACTA to address the regulatory imbalances that affect our sector.” 

White described Talarius as a “key player” within the AGC sector and welcomed the company’s return to the association.

“These are exciting but challenging times for the industry and we are stronger when we all work together,” he remarked. “It is important that we unite in order to achieve a positive change for the amusements sector.”
