Bacta has confirmed that Joseph Cullis of Windmill Leisure and Jeremy Godden, Managing Director of the Godden Gaming Organisation have been elected as its President and Vice President respectively. Both were declared unopposed following the closure of nominations on May 20.
Looking ahead to the task Bacta’s incoming President who succeeds John Bollom commented: “It’s a great honour to step-up and represent Bacta as its new President.
“There’s no doubt that Bacta is facing some of the biggest challenges in its 50-year history. The frustration at the delays in modernising gambling regulations, the proposed changes to Technical Standards and the media campaign targeting AGCs are all examples of what your trade association is dealing with.”
He added: “Working alongside John Bollom has been the perfect preparation for the main job. John has contributed so much to Bacta in so many different capacities. He’s the first person to be President on two occasions and his vision has resulted in the modernisation and streamlining of Bacta. He is an extremely hard act to follow and I know that I will be able to draw on his experience and insight.
“Jeremy and myself have no illusions about the size of the challenge but I can assure members that we will be giving our utmost to promote and protect their businesses on every front.”
Bacta has confirmed that it will be holding elections for the three National Council seats for Past Presidents as well as for the full Bacta Amusement Council (20 seats).
