Every general partner and limited partner of a limited partnership which holds or applies for a state gaming license must be licensed individually, according to the provisions of this chapter; and if, in the judgment of the commission, the public interest will be served by requiring any or all of the limited partnership's lenders, holders of evidence of indebtedness, underwriters, key executives, agents or employees to be licensed, the limited partnership shall require those persons to apply for a license in accordance with the laws and requirements in effect at the time the commission requires the licensing. Publicly traded corporations which are limited partners of limited partnerships are not required to be licensed but shall comply with this chapter. A person who is required to be licensed as a general or limited partner shall not receive that position until he secures the required approval of the commission. A person who is required to be licensed pursuant to a decision of the commission shall apply for a license within thirty (30) days after the executive director requests him to do so.Laws, 1990 Ex Sess, ch. 45, § 115, eff. 6/29/1990.
