Statement of Purpose / Fiscal Impact



                       STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
                             RS 13181
The current statute for the licensing requirement is confusing. 
By simplifying the language it makes the licensing requirement
clear and targets the types and sizes of games which were
initially intended to hold a license.  This change would not
increase or decrease the number of organizations who would be
required to have a license, it only clarifies their licensing
requirement.
