The person seeking licensure shall be provided with a copy of all information forwarded to the State Lottery Office pursuant to this subsection. Information obtained under this subsection is confidential and may only be disclosed to the Director and Deputy Director of the State Lottery Office. The State Bureau of Identification may release any subsequent criminal history to the Division of Gaming Enforcement.
(c) Costs associated with obtaining criminal history information shall be paid by the person seeking licensure.
