The government has initiated a complete policy review and a redrafting of the current legislation on gaming in Ireland. Local Independent TD Michael Lowry, top racehorse trainer Aidan O’Brien and concert promoter Denis Desmond have backed the venture dreamt up by slot-machine tycoon Richard Quirke.〔http://www.tipperarystar.ie/news/Tipp-Venue-Hold-Up-Rumours.6480796.jp?articlepage=1〕 Thurles racecourse owned by the Molony family will close upon completion of the project. It is expected that 1,000 people will be employed annually for the three years of construction and a further 2,000 full-time jobs will be created thereafter.〔http://www.sbpost.ie/newsfeatures/thumbs-up-for-tipp-supervenue-45314.html〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Tipperary Venue」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
