§315-A. Limited dual beano registration

The Gambling Control Unit may issue a limited dual beano registration to 2 organizations eligible for a regular registration to conduct a game of beano. A limited dual beano registration permits 2 organizations to conduct beano jointly on the same date and at the same location. An organization may only conduct beano under the authority of a dual registration on 2 occasions during a calendar year. The following provisions apply to registration under this section.   [PL 2017, c. 284, Pt. JJJJJ, §17 (AMD).]

1.  Application.  The 2 organizations wishing to conduct beano jointly shall submit an application to the Gambling Control Unit in a manner prescribed by the unit.  

[PL 2017, c. 284, Pt. JJJJJ, §17 (AMD).]

[PL 2017, c. 284, Pt. JJJJJ, §17 (AMD).]

3.  Disposition of revenue.  Revenue received from the conduct of the game must be divided in equal amounts between both organizations. Each organization shall file a disposition of funds report as if that organization had conducted beano independently.  

[PL 2013, c. 305, §2 (NEW).]

4.  Registration fee.  The registration fee for a limited dual beano license is $12.  

[PL 2017, c. 284, Pt. JJJJJ, §17 (AMD).]

5.  Sealed tickets.  A limited dual beano registration does not authorize the registered organizations to sell sealed tickets jointly.  

[PL 2017, c. 284, Pt. JJJJJ, §17 (AMD).]

6.  Application of other laws.  Unless otherwise provided by this section, the provisions of this chapter and rules adopted in accordance with this chapter apply to beano games conducted under a limited dual beano registration.
