AN ACT relative to live racing at licensed pari-mutuel facilities.

Be it Enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives in General Court convened:

1 Pari-Mutuel Pools on Simulcast Racing. Amend RSA 284:22-a, II(a)(3) to read as follows:

(3) The licensee has scheduled at least [100] 15 days of live racing in the [calendar] fiscal year in which the licensee simulcasts, or if the licensee does not have scheduled at least [100] 15 days of live racing in such [calendar] fiscal year, the licensee conducts live racing on the day on which the licensee simulcasts; and

2 Pari-Mutuel Pools on Simulcast Racing. Amend RSA 284:22-a, IV to read as follows:

IV. A licensee which has scheduled [less than 100 days] the minimum number of live racing days as provided in subparagraph II(a)(3) in a [calendar] fiscal year may simulcast on a day on which live racing is scheduled at the licensee's race track, without conducting live racing, provided that the live racing program is cancelled due to weather or other conditions which produce unsafe conditions at the racetrack of the licensee. The determination to cancel a live program based upon weather or the condition of the racetrack shall be made by the licensee, and notice shall be provided to the commission. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a licensee which has scheduled less than [100 days] the minimum number of live racing days as provided in subparagraph II(a)(3) shall be limited to no more than 10 such cancellations in a [calendar] fiscal year.

3 Effective Date. This act shall take effect 60 days after its passage.
