(1) An individual may not be employed by the commission if the individual has been convicted of or entered a plea of guilty or nolo contendere to a felony committed in the preceding ten (10) years, regardless of adjudication, unless the commission determines that:
(A) the individual has been pardoned or the individual's civil rights have been restored; or
(B) subsequent to the individual's conviction or entry of a plea the individual engaged in the kind of law abiding behavior and good citizenship that would reflect well upon the integrity of the lottery.
(2) The director, a member, or an employee of the commission having decision making authority may not participate in a decision involving a vendor or retailer with whom the director, member, or employee has a financial interest. An employee may not participate in a decision involving a vendor or retailer with whom the employee has discussed employment opportunities without the approval of the director or, if the individual is the director or a member of the commission, without the approval of the governor. An employee of the commission shall notify the director of any employment opportunities discussed or, if the individual is the director or a member of the commission, the director or member shall notify the governor. A violation of this subdivision is a Class A infraction.
(3) The director, a member, or an employee of the commission who terminates employment with the commission may not represent a vendor or retailer before the commission regarding a specific matter that the director, member or employee was involved in while serving as a director or member of or while employed by the commission for one (1) year following the date the director or member left the commission or the date of cessation of employment with the commission. A violation of this subdivision is a Class A infraction.
