TITLE: Missouri Gaming Commission Settles Bingo Discipline Case with Bolivar Memorial DAV Chapter 66 BODY: On February 25, 2026, the Missouri Gaming Commission (MGC) approved a settlement agreement with Bolivar Memorial DAV Chapter 66 concerning the non-renewal of its bingo license. The settlement resolves disciplinary action initiated on July 15, 2025, when the MGC notified the licensee of its intent not to renew its licence due to violations of Sections 313.040, 313.045, and 313.052 of the Revised Statutes of Missouri. During a routine audit conducted on April 3, 2024, MGC staff identified fifty-eight unreported disbursements from the licensee's fourth quarter 2023 bingo checking account, including automated teller machine and debit card transactions. The disbursements included purchases on Facebook Marketplace, Amazon, and transactions at a hotel and petrol station in Kentucky. Despite repeated requests for documentation, the licensee did not fully respond. MGC staff also discovered that several disbursements from the bingo checking account coincided with deposits into the personal bank account of Theresa Greene, the bingo chair. The unreported transactions and insufficient documentation constituted misuse and misappropriation of charitable bingo funds in violation of state law requiring net receipts to be used exclusively for charitable, religious, orphilanthropic, or philanthropic purposes. As conditions for licence reissuance, Theresa Greene, Michael Carr, and James Michael Hughes must be removed from all connection to the licensee's bingo activities and replaced with unconnected officers. The licensee must submit bingo checking account bank statements and cancelled cheques with each quarterly report on paper rather than through the online reporting system, cooperate with any criminal investigation, and comply with all bingo operation requirements. The settlement became effective on February 25, 2026.

Horizon Scanning Outline. Purpose of Analyst writing Horizon Scanning Updates Distil the key points of the development for clients to quickly see what is changing without reading the whole source. Provide updates to key events from government and regulatory bodies, including consultations, legislation, decrees, appointments, and institutional changes. Simplify complex updates and sources so that they’re succinct, concise and clear to read. Consistently structure and write updates in the same format. Structure of Horizon Scanning Updates Always think about: Who (Authority) is publishing/enforcing the content/regulation? Where (Jurisdiction)? What type of document or announcement is it (e.g., consultation, regulation, decree, appointment, institutional change)? What is changing/being informed? Who is this update applicable to (credit, e-money institutions, etc.)? Why is this update noteworthy? What is its significance? When is the update applicable? Title Describe what the update is about. Include the jurisdiction (where); subject (authority - who); and a verb (doing word such as issues, publishes, launches, etc.- what). All titles should be written in present tense. Avoid using acronyms Approx 10 - 20 words Example Turkey’s Personal Data Protection Authority Publishes Data Protection Guidance Paragraph 1 Open with the date of the update (When) Name the authority that released the update (Who) Summarise the release (What) Example On June 20, 2025, the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) launched a consultation on guidelines for responsible usage of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) in Indian securities markets. Paragraph 2 Summarise key points. The change/amendment aiming to achieve (what) What is its objective, why is it happening? Why is it significant? (why) Who does it impact or concern? (Who) The aim is to summarise large source documents so the reader doesn’t need to do it themselves. DO NOT just copy the first few sentences of the document. Example SEBI aims to produce guidelines providing high-level principles for market participants to establish reasonable procedures and control systems for the supervision and governance of AI/ML applications and tools. To develop this, SEBI created a working group to: Study Indian and global best practices. Prepare the guidelines. Address the concerns and issues arising from AI/ML usage. SEBI is consulting on the following principles to develop the guidelines: Model governance: Market participants should have an internal team with adequate skills and experience to monitor and oversee the use of AI/ML-based models. Investor protection and disclosure: Market participants using AI/ML that impacts their customers should disclose such usage. Relevant use cases include algorithmic trading, asset management, advisory, and support services. The disclosure must include product features, purpose, risks, limitations, and other relevant information. Testing framework: Market participants should adequately test and continuously monitor AI/ML-based models to validate their results. Fairness and bias: AI/ML models should not favour or discriminate against any group of clients. Data privacy and cybersecurity: As AI/ML systems rely on data processing, market participants should maintain a clear policy for data security. Paragraph 3 Acts as a “Call To Action”. Provide forward looking context: What actions need to be taken? Who needs to take action? Next steps to the development. Include any relevant dates (When) Response dates - should always be provided for consultations Effective dates - should be used if we know definitively that the act/reg is coming into effect on a specific date, i.e., it has been passed/adopted.
