Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board Gaming—
Junket Amendments;
Regulation No. 125-129 (#2873)

 On September 13, 2010, the Independent Regulatory Review Commission (Commission) received this proposed regulation from the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board (Board). This rulemaking amends 58 Pa. Code Chapters 401a, 421a, 439a, 440a, 441a, 451a, 465a, 481a, 501a and 503a. The proposed regulation was published in the September 25, 2010 Pennsylvania Bulletin with a 30-day public comment period. The final-form regulation was submitted to the Commission on February 14, 2011.

 This rulemaking amends the Board's regulations to comply with Act 1 of 2010 revisions to the Pennsylvania Race Horse Development and Gaming Act. The amendments also improve clarity and eliminate or reduce the registration or application requirements for some entities and individuals.

 We have determined this regulation is consistent with the statutory authority of the Board (4 Pa.C.S. §§ 1202(b)(9), (23) and (30), 1318, 1602(a) and 1604(a)) and the intention of the General Assembly. Having considered all of the other criteria of the Regulatory Review Act, we find promulgation of this regulation is in the public interest.

By Order of the Commission:

 This regulation is approved.

SILVAN B. LUTKEWITTE, III,
