HAMILTON, Bermuda, CMC - While Bermuda wrestles with the thorny topic of introducing casinos to the island, cruise ship passengers could soon be allowed to gamble on board their vessels while in port.
A bill to allow in-port gambling has been tabled in the House of Assembly.
The legislation, long sought by cruise companies, would permit licensed vessels to run casinos between 9 p.m. and 5 a.m. (local time) while in designated local ports.
