An Act relating to prizes awarded by licensed qualified organizations.
BE IT ENACTED BY THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF THE STATE OF IOWA:

    Section 1.  Section 99B.15, subsection 1, paragraph e, Code 2026, is amended to read as follows:
   e.  A prize shall be distributed on the day the prize is won, except that if the winner is not present, notification to the winner shall be made as soon as practical within one year of the prize being awarded.
EXPLANATION
The inclusion of this explanation does not constitute agreement with
the explanation’s substance by the members of the general assembly.
   For purposes of social and charitable gambling, this bill requires a licensed qualified organization to send notification to a winner of a prize who is not present when the prize is awarded within one year of the prize being awarded. Current law requires a licensed qualified organization to notify an absent winner as soon as practical.
