Bill Summary

AN ACT to amend the racing, pari-mutuel wagering and breeding law, in relation to permitting requests for self-exclusion from gambling to be made electronically

AI Summary

This bill amends existing law to allow individuals to electronically submit requests to be placed on or removed from the list of self-excluded persons, which is a list maintained by the commission (likely referring to the New York State Gaming Commission) of individuals who wish to voluntarily ban themselves from gambling activities. This change aims to modernize the process for self-exclusion, making it more accessible by enabling online submissions, in addition to the existing procedures. The bill also reiterates that the commission's regulations must outline how identifying information of self-excluded individuals is shared with licensed gaming facilities and mandates that these facilities implement measures to prevent self-excluded individuals from receiving targeted advertising and accessing benefits like credit, complimentary services, or club programs.
