The NSW Independent Casino Commission (NICC), which led the inquiry, is expected to release further details on Monday.
NICC chief commissioner Philip Crawford following the report’s release said while the majority of the staff were doing the right thing, systemic governance and risk and cultural failures had been found.
"The report is, quite frankly, shocking. It provides evidence of an extensive compliance breakdown in key areas of The Star's business," Mr Crawford said.
"Not only were huge amounts of money disguised by the casino as hotel expenses, but vast sums of cash evaded anti-money laundering protocols in numerous situations, most alarmingly through Salon 95 — the secret room with a second cash cage."
Thirty recommendation were made to Star Entertainment from the report, with the group saying it had taken “significant and urgent remedial steps” to address the issues discovered.
