DESCRIPTION
This proposal gives the Lottery Commission the authority to require a fingerprint background check on any person seeking employment or employed by the commission. The background check includes a
check of the Missouri Criminal Records Repository and gives the Commission the authority to run a national check with the FBI, if the Commission deems it necessary.
The proposal requires the Gaming Commission to conduct a criminal history check, if the Commission feels it is warranted, on certain key persons seeking issuance or renewal of a bingo equipment and supplies manufacturer or supplier license. The Gaming Commission must also do a criminal history check, if the Commission feels it is warranted, on any person seeking employment with the commission and any person seeking the issuance or renewal of an excursion gambling boat license.
The proposal also outlines requirements for civilian review boards.
This legislation is not federally mandated, would not duplicate any other program and would not require additional capital improvements or rental space.
