The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 5084, seeks to amend the current statutes regarding the redemption period for lottery tickets. Specifically, the bill introduces an extension of the lottery ticket redemption period to one year. This change aims to provide lottery players with a longer timeframe to claim their winnings, thereby enhancing accessibility and convenience for participants.
The bill does not specify any deletions from the current law, focusing solely on the insertion of the new redemption period. By extending the redemption timeframe, the legislation intends to improve the overall experience for lottery players and potentially increase participation in the lottery system.
