Commission administrator, Brian Ohorilko, said the new law will change the time period available for self-bans on July 1st. Backers of the project believe more people may sign up for the self-ban if there is a shorter term involved for the ban.
Ohorilko explained there are several things right now that are considered a violation by casinos when dealing with someone on theself-ban list. He also said that the Iowa Gaming Association is the only custodian of the self-exclusion list for the casinos is currently working to update the technology to deal with the new law changes.
