Short Summary
This section of the Massachusetts General Law governs the establishment of qualifications for licensure by clear and convincing evidence for applicants seeking a gaming license and any person required by the commission to be qualified for licensure. It imposes a duty on applicants, licensees, registrants, and other qualified individuals to provide assistance and information to the commission and cooperate in any inquiry or investigation conducted by the commission. Failure to comply may result in denial of the application or suspension or revocation of the license or registration. Additionally, it prohibits the willful withholding of information or provision of false or misleading information to the commission. If an applicant or a close associate of an applicant is found to have willfully provided false or misleading information, they will be ineligible to receive a license.
