The Star chairman John O’Neill resigns ahead of inquiry grilling
Executive chairman of the Star Entertainment Group, John O'Neill, has resigned ahead of a public grilling at an inquiry into the company's Sydney casino licence.
The crisis-hit company announced late Friday afternoon on the ASX that O'Neill had tendered his resignation and would "step down from the board with a departure date to be agreed."
"Mr O'Neill informed fellow directors of his decision late today," the statement said. "Mr O'Neill will hand over his chair and executive responsibilities in a timely and orderly fashion."
O'Neill is the latest senior executive to leave The Star since the explosive investigation into its suitability for a casino licence began in March, joining chief executive Matt Bekier, chief financial officer Harry Theodore, and a handful of other top executives and directors on the list.
