Lottery Commission rule relating to interactive wagering
This bill authorizes West Virginia's Lottery Commission to implement an existing rule governing interactive wagering (online gambling), specifically referencing the rule filed in the State Register on June 25, 2025 (179 CSR 10). It formally incorporates this rule into state law under §64-7-1 of the West Virginia Code. The rule directly affects online gambling operators and the Lottery Commission, establishing regulatory parameters for interactive wagering services within the state. This is a procedural measure to codify an existing regulatory framework, not a new policy change.
