SYDNEY, Aug. 11 -- Sydney's $750 million casino project hit a major crisis when the New South Wales state government re-opened investigations into the integrity of the preferred operator late Wednesday night. The Casino Control board announced the review, after the leader of the state opposition party, Bob Carr, had questioned the 'probity' of the Australian-U.S. consortium.

The decision now puts in doubt the May announcement that the Sydney Harbour Casino Ltd., made up of Australian construction giant Leightons and U.S.-based casino operator Showboat, would develop and operate Sydney's first casino. The leader of the New South Wales state government, John Fahey, said Wednesday night that the losing consortium in the bid to operate the casino, Darling Casino, headed by Australian businessman Kerry Packer and U.S. casino giant Circus Circus, was 'still very much there' in the race. Carr claimed he had evidence that the government's agreement with the preferred applicant could cost the New South Wales taxpayers 'hundreds of millions of dollars' in compensation. He refused to detail the evidence uncovered by his staff, but said he has written to Fahey to state that he will raise his concerns in parliament. Representatives of the two casino bidding consortiums were called to an emergency meeting with the casino authority in Sydney on Wednesday night. The authority warned it might hold public hearings to test the latest information. The casino authority indicated in May that the final agreement for the casino licence would be signed by November. Sydney Harbour Casino managing director Gregg Nasky said he welcomed the planned investigation, even though the consortium already had passed a rigorous 12-month probity test. Nasky said his group had been the subject of a smear campaign as a series of 'wild, unsubstantiated' rumours had circulated around Sydney.
