Section 53-12.1-02 - Lottery - Administration - Line of credit1. There is established a division of the attorney general's office called the North Dakota lottery. Under the supervision of the attorney general, a director shall administer the lottery as provided in this chapter. The director shall consider the sensitive nature of the lottery, promote games, and ensure the integrity, security, and fairness of the lottery's operation. The lottery is solely responsible for the management and control over the operation of its games.2. The attorney general's office may arrange a short-term line of credit with the Bank of North Dakota should lottery funds on hand be insufficient to meet an immediate major prize obligation. The line of credit is limited to the amount of each prize of one hundred thousand dollars or more that relates to prize funds known to be due and forthcoming to the lottery from other government-authorized lotteries through the multistate lottery association. However, the line of credit may not exceed one million dollars in the aggregate.
