NRS463.40955. Commission may require finding of suitability.

      1.  The Commission may, upon recommendation of the Board, require:

      (a) A qualified organization that registers with or requests the approval of the Executive Director to file an application pursuant to this chapter for a finding of suitability to operate charitable bingo in this state.

      (b) Any person who is employed by, a member of, a supplier of or otherwise associated with such an organization to file an application pursuant to this chapter for a finding of suitability to be associated with the operation of charitable bingo in this state.

      2.  The Commission may revoke the registration or approval of a qualified organization if:

      (a) An application for a finding of suitability is not submitted to the Board within 30 days after the qualified organization receives written notice that it is required pursuant to paragraph (a) of subsection 1 to file an application for a finding of suitability.

      (b) The qualified organization is found unsuitable to operate charitable bingo in this state.

      (c) A complete application for a finding of suitability is not submitted to the Board or the association of the person with the organization is not terminated, within 30 days after the qualified organization receives written notice that an associated person is required pursuant to paragraph (b) of subsection 1 to file an application for a finding of suitability.

      (d) The associated person is found unsuitable to be associated with the operation of charitable bingo in this state and the qualified organization does not terminate its association with that person within 30 days after receiving written notice of the finding of unsuitability. Every contract or agreement for personal services to a qualified organization or for the conduct of any activity relating to the operation of charitable bingo shall be deemed to include a provision for its termination without liability on the part of the qualified organization upon a finding by the Commission that the person is unsuitable to be associated with a qualified organization. Failure expressly to include such a condition in the agreement is not a defense in any action brought pursuant to this section to terminate the agreement.
