An analysis and examination of the literature review has shown that in some countries which permit gambling, public debate is seen more often. There are also several arguments which are presented in terms of the jurisdiction. It is because the benefits of gambling are more often overstated and exaggerated depending upon the companies and individuals promoting the sector. Moreover, there is also disagreement in terms of how the experts and analysts measure the impacts of the gambling sector on the economy. The cost and benefit analysis performed in this regard also happen to be vague. Keeping in view the intense and detailed discussion which accompanies the launching of casinos, there is a need for an in depth analysis in terms of the economic benefits of the casinos. However, it is quite surprising to notice that there was no major debate or discussion was witnessed when the Jamaica Government took the initiative. There are some expert analysts have called this initiative to question. Some even argue that the public opinion should have also been called for in this regard. During 2008, the government of Jamaica announced that gaming in casinos is going to be introduced to diversify and improve tourism. At the same time, Jamaican Labour Party had also received a lot of support from the opposition. Jamaica had a limited number of slot machines and tables. Considering the fact that the countries that have a developed casino network are making a superior economic progress, the Jamaican Government saw increased potential for growth in the plan. Although the literature dealing with the psychological impacts of gambling is mostly negative, there is a still a great deal of evidence supporting the economic benefits of the initiative. The Prime Minister, Bruce Golding, said in this regard that gambling is already existent in the country. As there are only some small establishments of Casinos, there is a need for more investment in the sector. He continued by saying that this step will ensure a prosperous economic future for the whole country and its citizens. Other government officials stated that a detailed cost and benefit analysis will be carried out to ensure that the profits outweigh the costs. In addition to notching up the economy, this initiative will also induce a boom in the tourism sector of the country. He also added that the government has also made plans for setting up thousands new hotel rooms and sites for accommodating the tourists, who will travel primarily for gambling purposes. It is to be considered that this initiative will demand billions of dollars investment. However, the plan of the government demands the establishment of an effective legal framework to deal with casino gambling. Another country located in the region, which has a long history of Casinos, is the Bahamas. Moreover, as the proposal is going to attract a number of casino hotels into the region, the licenses will only be given to those establishments which will offer at least 1000 rooms. In addition, the casinos are not going to represent more than 20 % of the total investment and will be subject to a rigorous approval process by the Jamaican Government.
