        AN  ACT  to  amend  the  tax law, in relation to authorizing advertising
          during quick draw
          The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and  Assem-
        bly, do enact as follows:
     1    Section  1. Section 1604 of the tax law is amended by adding three new
     2  subdivisions d, e and f to read as follows:
     3    d. The division may contract with one or more  persons  to  allow  the
     4  placement  of  advertising  or  promotional  material on available media
     5  related to any online lottery game or to sponsor individual draws in any
     6  online lottery game. If the division enters into a contract  under  this
     7  subdivision,  the division shall allow at least one minute between draws
     8  of online lottery games during which one or more advertisements  may  be
     9  exhibited.
    10    e.  A  contract entered into under subdivision d of this section shall
    11  provide that  any  advertisements  exhibited  between  draws  of  online
    12  lottery games shall comply with content regulations for televised broad-
    13  cast  adopted  by the Federal Communications Commission, with the excep-
    14  tion that the advertising  under  subdivision  d  of  this  section  may
    15  include advertisements for alcoholic beverages with restrictions imposed
    16  only by the division.
    17    f. The division shall solicit bids from responsible persons for adver-
    18  tising or promotional contracts under subdivision d of this section. The
    19  division  shall select from among the bids received so as to produce the
    20  maximum amount of net revenue for the state consistent with the  general
    21  welfare  of the citizens of the state. In deciding whether to enter into
    22  a contract under subdivision d  of  this  section,  the  division  shall
    23  consider  whether  the terms of the contract are comparable to the terms
    24  of similar advertising or promotional contracts relating to  lottery  or
    25  other gaming in other states.
    26    § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
         EXPLANATION--Matter in italics (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
                              [ ] is old law to be omitted.
