Article 2 of the Act

(2) Lottery is operated according to a game plan which contains, in addition to the formalities laid down in Section 2 (4) of the Act, information on:
(a) the number of tickets issued or the determination of the total amount of deposits (bets) and, where applicable, the number of lots issued;

If the circumstance or event that decides to win cannot be checked at any time (e.g. composition), it must be ascertained by the authority responsible for the supervision. It is not allowed for another lottery, including a foreign lottery, to decide how to win.

The total value of the winnings shall be equal to the gambling principal minus the planned expenses associated with the implementation of the lottery and its promotion and, where appropriate, other necessary expenditure. Any surplus may be used by organisations only to further promote the collection of raw materials, or for purposes agreed with the lottery authority.
