At the age of 73, MrSwitkowski last year was a director of fellow gaming company Tabcorp. Switkowski’s appointment to Chairman comes amid three separate royal commissions into the Crown Resort company’s affairs, the most recent of which is still unfolding in Perth. https://twitter.com/tickerNEWSco/status/1430816023905587204?s=20 Switkowski is currently the chair of the federal government-owned NBN Co Mr Switkowski will be chair to Crown’s new chief executive Steve McCann, who is yet to receive probity clearance from Crown’s myriad regulators. Switkowski as a former Tabcorp director has jumped through probity hoops before in both Victoria and NSW, which should speed up what has been a slow process of approval for other new Crown executives and directors. The group is expected to reveal its annual results to the market on Monday. Related Topics:Featuredtrending Leave a ReplyYour email address will not be published.
