SECTION 19527-19528



19527.  The Legislature finds and declares all of the following:
   (a) The Association of Racing Commissioners International has
proposed a compact providing for the licensure of individuals
involved in the horse racing industry.
   (b) The intent of this compact is to preclude the necessity of
individual owners, trainers, backstretch employees, and other race
track personnel from having to be separately licensed in each state
in which they may conduct business.
   (c) This compact would provide for an individual to be licensed by
the compact committee created therein, and thus be able to practice
his or her profession in all states that are members of the compact.
   (d) The purpose of the compact is to:
   (1) Establish uniform requirements among the party states for the
licensing of participants in live horse racing with parimutuel
wagering, and ensure that all participants who are licensed pursuant
to this compact meet a uniform minimum standard of honesty and
integrity.
   (2) Facilitate the growth of the horse racing industry in each
party state and nationwide by simplifying the licensing process for
participants in the live racing industry, and reduce the duplicative
and costly process of separate licensing by the applicable regulatory
agency in each state.
   (3) Authorize the California Horse Racing Board to participate in
this compact.
   (4) Provide for participation in this compact by officials of the
party states, and permit those officials, through the compact
committee established by the compact, to enter into contracts with
governmental agencies and nongovernmental persons and entities to
carry out the purposes of this compact.
   (5) Establish the compact committee created by this compact as an
interstate governmental entity duly authorized to request and receive
criminal history record information from the Federal Bureau of
Investigation, other federal law enforcement agencies, and state and
local law enforcement agencies.



19528.  The California Horse Racing Board is hereby authorized to
enter into the interstate compact identified in Section 19527 for the
purposes described therein, provided that this state's participation
in this compact does not result in the diminution of applicable
existing standards established for licensure in California with
regard to an applicant's criminal history and does not prevent the
enforcement of any state law or regulation affecting any licensee.
The California Horse Racing Board's entry into the interstate compact
identified in Section 19527 shall not relieve any individual or
entity of its duty to obtain any license or pay any fee otherwise
required by this chapter. An individual designated by the California
Horse Racing Board shall be responsible for representing California
in conjunction with the administration of the compact.
