ADDABBO -- read twice and ordered printed, and when printed to be committed to the Committee on Racing, Gaming and Wager- ing -- reported favorably from said committee, ordered to first and second report, ordered to a third reading, passed by Senate and deliv- ered to the Assembly, recalled, vote reconsidered, restored to third reading, amended and ordered reprinted, retaining its place in the order of third reading AN ACT in relation to establishing the legislative task force on respon- sible gaming The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem- bly, do enact as follows: 1 Section 1. Legislative findings. a. The legislature hereby finds that 2 the 2012-2013 New York state budget amended the state constitution to 3 allow for non-tribal casino gaming in New York. It also included 4 provisions to create a New York state gaming commission, as a result of 5 the merger between the division of lottery and the racing and wagering 6 board. The commission is charged with oversight of the division of 7 lottery, the division of charitable gaming, the division of gaming, and 8 the division of horse racing and pari-mutuel wagering. This legislative 9 action consolidated the state's gaming regulatory functions under a 10 single oversight body. 11 b. The legislature further finds that the development of policies and 12 procedures that foster responsible gaming practices by gaming facilities 13 licensed or enfranchised by the New York state gaming commission or its 14 divisions is necessary to mitigate the risks or consequences associated 15 with problem gambling. The legislature concludes that this can be best 16 accomplished by the creation of a task force on responsible gaming. 17 § 2. Legislative task force on responsible gaming.
