  5    assessment  due.  If the payment of the assessment is not postmarked or deliv-
  6    ered to the commission as specified in subsection (1)  of  this  section,  the
  7    assessment shall be delinquent from such date.

 13    receipts report and pay any assessment pursuant to the provisions of this sec-
 14    tion  to  keep and preserve suitable records and documents which may be neces-
 15    sary to determine the amount of assessment due as will substantiate and  prove
 16    the accuracy of such reports. All such records shall be preserved for a period
 17    of  three  (3)  years, unless the commission, in writing, has authorized their
 18    destruction or disposal at an earlier date, and shall be open  to  examination

Statement of Purpose / Fiscal Impact



                       STATEMENT OF PURPOSE

                            RS 17638C1                           

     The purpose of this legislation is to provide funding
through the Athletic Commission for promotion of amateur boxing
in Idaho.  The legislation provides for up to 5% of the funds
already being collected by the Athletic Commission to be used for
amateur boxing promotion.  

    Last year, the Athletic Commission generated $56,576 in
revenue from ticket sales.  This would have provided $2,828.00
that could have been used for amateur boxing promotion.



                           FISCAL NOTE

     There is no fiscal impact to the General Fund.
