The Assembly of Nagasaki Prefecture on Wednesday approved by a majority vote a bill to seek national government authorisation for the prefecture’s plan to host a casino-featuring integrated resort (IR).
The Nagasaki prefectural government will submit the plan to the central government by the deadline on April 28. The project calls for procuring funds totaling 438.3 billion yen to cover IR construction and other necessary costs.
The prefectural government hopes to open the resort in the city of Sasebo around autumn 2027, expecting it to attract 6.73 million visitors and earn 271.6 billion yen of revenue in fiscal 2031.
