"This morning's announcement from the CMA marks a further important milestone in the process towards completion of our proposed combination with The Stars Group. We continue to work with the remaining international regulatory authorities to obtain the last of the outstanding approvals. Separately last week we published the necessary documentation ahead of the shareholder votes in April and we continue to make good progress in our post-completion planning."
