Arizona Department of Gaming 2 articles

Arizona Department of Gaming is an Arizona state agency responsible for gaming regulation and administration.

It is separate from the commercial operators and suppliers subject to state rules. The entry therefore emphasizes enduring jurisdiction and function over time-sensitive regulatory activity.
