This bill revises the laws governing the Director of the State Lottery by removing the existing restriction that prohibits the Director from holding any other occupation. This change allows the Director to engage in additional employment outside of their role with the State Lottery, thereby increasing flexibility in their professional commitments.

Additionally, the bill stipulates that the Director may not own or be employed by a gaming supplier or sales agent, ensuring that there is no conflict of interest in their position. The bill amends Section 23-7-210 of the Montana Code Annotated (MCA) and is set to take effect immediately upon passage.
