Intralot, the North American subsidiary of the Intralot Group, upon receipt of the findings of the Illinois Independent Auditor General notes the substantial conformity of that report with the issues raised by Intralot over the past several months with the Department of Revenue regarding the Lottery privatization procurement.
 
Intralot CEO, Tom Little, said that Holland’s (of the Auditor General’s office) findings confirmed Intralot’s continually articulated view that it has suffered from prejudicial behavior from the Illinois department of Revenue in its conduct of the Illinois Lottery privatization RFP in 2010.
 
“Holland’s findings are an important acknowledgement and confirm, in a substantial and substantive way, the effect on Intralot of the Illinois Department of Revenue’s privatization process.”
 
“While it appears from the findings that Northstar was a beneficiary of preferential treatment from the process, Intralot has suffered and continues to suffer reputational and financial damage because of the department of revenue’s conduct and behavior in the process.”
 
“Unfortunately, continued Little, this finding does not bring an immediate remedy for a flawed process.”
