BILL NUMBER:S6766
Title of bill
An act to amend the tax law, in relation to authorizing advertising during quick draw
Purpose or general idea of bill
This bill would allow the Director of the Division of Lottery to contract for the placement of advertising on any available media related to an online lottery game (i.e., Quick Draw). The Director would also be allowed to contract sponsorship of individual draws in an online lottery game.
Summary of specific provisions
Section 1 of the bill would allow the Director of the Division of Lottery to contract for advertising on any available media between draws of an online lottery game such as Quick Draw. Individual draws could also be sponsored. Any such advertising would have to comply with the Federal Communications Commission's rules for content regulations, though it may include advertising for alcoholic beverages with restrictions. The advertising space would be awarded after the solicitation of bids by the Director.
Justification
Advertising space could be broadcast upon media between Quick Draw games; there is the potential to generate considerable revenue for New York State by contracting out for this advertising space.
Prior legislative history
New bill.
Fiscal implications
There would be no cost to New York State and there could potentially be large amounts of revenue generated.
Effective date
This act shall take effect immediately.
