Abstract

Jurisdictions across the world rightfully look to Nevada’s gaming regulatory system as possessing many of the best regulatory practices. Nevada policymakers, however, should critically examine its system for improvements. One area, which has failed to keep up with regulatory best practices, is allowing members of the Nevada Gaming Commission to engage in ex parte communications, which occur when one party to a matter speaks to commission members outside the presence of other parties or outside of a public forum.
