1. The Commission may, upon recommendation
of the Board, require:
(a) A qualified organization that registers with
the Chair to file an application pursuant to chapter
463 of NRS for a finding of suitability to operate a charitable lottery or
charitable game in this state.
(b) Any person who is employed by, a member of or
otherwise associated with such an organization to file an application pursuant
to chapter 463 of NRS for a finding of
suitability to be associated with the operation of a charitable lottery or
charitable game in this state.
2. The Board may conduct an investigation
of the qualified organization or associated person and submit recommendations
to the Commission. The qualified organization or associated person must deposit
with the Board a sum of money which the Board determines will be adequate to
pay the anticipated costs of the investigation and shall upon the completion of
the investigation pay to the Board any additional money necessary to reimburse
the Board for the actual cost of the investigation. The Board shall refund any
overpayments.
3. The Commission may revoke the
registration of a qualified organization to operate a charitable lottery or
charitable game if:
(a) An application for a finding of suitability
is not submitted to the Board, together with the deposit required by subsection
2, within 30 days after the qualified organization receives written notice that
it is required pursuant to paragraph (a) of subsection 1 to file an application
for a finding of suitability.
(b) The qualified organization is found
unsuitable to operate a charitable lottery or charitable game in this state.
(c) An application for a finding of suitability
is not submitted to the Board, together with the deposit required by subsection
2, or the association of the person with the organization is not terminated,
within 30 days after the qualified organization receives written notice that an
associated person is required pursuant to paragraph (b) of subsection 1 to file
an application for a finding of suitability.
(d) The associated person is found unsuitable to
be associated with the operation of a charitable lottery or charitable game in
this state and the qualified organization does not terminate its association
with that person within 30 days after receiving written notice of the finding
of unsuitability.
4. If the Commission finds that an
associated person is unsuitable to be associated with the operation of a
charitable lottery or charitable game in this State, any contract or agreement
between the associated person and a qualified organization for the provision of
personal services to the qualified organization or for conducting any activity
relating to the operation of the charitable lottery or charitable game shall be
deemed to be terminated without liability on the part of the qualified
organization. Failure to expressly include such a condition in a contract or
agreement is not a defense in any action brought pursuant to this section to
terminate the contract or agreement.
