## Full section analysis

The DC Office of the Attorney General secured a $6.5 million settlement -- $5 million from Intralot and $1.5 million from Veterans Services Corporation -- resolving False Claims Act allegations of misrepresented certified-business-enterprise subcontracting performance on the District's sole-source sports-wagering and lottery contract. This is confirmed and is the first DC False Claims Act action targeting a certified-business-enterprise matter in the gaming sector, marking a structural rather than episodic development: it signals the Attorney General's willingness to apply general procurement-integrity statutes against gaming-sector contractors. Combined with the ABCA licensing-authority transfer, DC's enforcement architecture now runs on two tracks -- gaming-specific licensing enforcement through OLG/ABCA, and general government-contracting integrity enforcement through the Attorney General -- and vendors on future sports-wagering or iGaming contracts should expect subcontracting-compliance scrutiny to intensify.
