Crown facing new inquiry into Perth casino licence as crisis deepens

The crisis confronting Crown Resorts is deepening by the day with regulators in Western Australia recommending an investigation into whether the company is suitable to operate its Burswood casino in Perth. 

The WA probe comes after the New South Wales regulator effectively stripped Crown of its licence for a casino at Barangaroo in Sydney. 

ABC's Peter Ryan says corporate regulator ASIC is closely watching for potential breaches of corporate law.
