This bill amends the State Lottery Act by modifying section 9-829 of the Reissue Revised Statutes of Nebraska. The key change is the removal of the prohibition against selling lottery tickets through vending or dispensing devices. The bill maintains existing regulations that lottery game retailers must sell tickets only on their premises, prohibits sales over the telephone or through the mail, and disallows extending credit for ticket purchases.
Additionally, the bill includes a provision to repeal the original section 9-829, which contained the now-deleted prohibition on vending machine sales. This legislative change aims to modernize the sale of lottery tickets and potentially increase accessibility for consumers.
