No claim for the payment of an expense of the lottery or the payment of a lottery prize may be made unless it is against the lottery operating fund or money collected from the sale of lottery tickets. Except for the initial start - up funding to the lottery, the general funds of the state may not be used or obligated to pay the expenses of the South Dakota Lottery or prizes of the lottery.
