" Councillors meeting last night voted to put Carlisle's name forward as a venue for one of 17 new casinos to be opened as the Government relaxes gambling laws.
" A report from the council's director of development services, Catherine Elliot, said a casino could attract tourists, create jobs and support an up-market hotel.
" The city's name will now go forward to a panel advising the Government on where the new casinos should be.
" The plans include one super casino, which would be likely to be in Blackpool, and 16 others across the country "
