INTRODUCED BY   Senator Hill

   An act to amend Section 19855 of the Business and Professions
Code, relating to gaming.


	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   SB 472, as introduced, Hill. Gaming: licenses.
   The Gambling Control Act provides for the licensure of certain
individuals and establishments involved in various gambling
activities, and for the regulation of those activities, by the
California Gambling Control Commission. The act requires every person
who is required to hold a state license to obtain the license prior
to engaging in the activity or occupying the position with respect to
which the license is required, except as specified. Existing law
requires every person who, by order of the commission, is required to
apply for a gambling license or a finding of suitability to file an
application within 30 calendar days after receipt of the order.
   This bill would instead require the application described above to
be filed within 45 calendar days after receipt of an order of the
commission.
   Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: no.
State-mandated local program: no.


THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:
