This bill is no longer active — its legislative session has ended, so there is no live prognosis. It would have to be reintroduced in the current session to move again.

Summary

Existing law, until January 1, 2011, authorizes racing associations, fairs, and other related organizations to form a private, statewide marketing organization to market and promote thoroughbred and fair horse racing, and to obtain, provide, or defray the cost of workers' compensation coverage for stable employees and jockeys of thoroughbred trainers. A specified percentage of the amount handled by each satellite wagering facility is required to be distributed to that statewide marketing organization for those purposes of promotion and defraying the cost of workers' compensation coverage. Existing law also provides that any promotion funds not expended in the year in which they are collected may be expended in the following year. Existing law, until January 1, 2014, provides that every thoroughbred association and fair that conducts a racing meet shall deduct a percentage of the total amount handled in exotic parimutuel pools of thoroughbred races, which shall be distributed to an organization, as specified, to defray costs of workers' compensation insurance in connection with thoroughbred horses that race in this state, as specified. Existing law provides that any funds that are not used to defray the cost of workers' compensation insurance shall either be carried forward to the subsequent year or used to reimburse racing associations for safety-related expenditures, as specified. This bill would provide that, in the event there are at any time uncommitted surplus funds in accounts created pursuant to the above provisions of existing law, those unexpended funds may, at the written request of the organization governing those funds and with the approval of the California Horse Racing Board, be reallocated to any other fund or account created pursuant to the Horse Racing Law. The bill would require the request to be accompanied by a certain report of receipts and expenditures, would authorize the board to require quarterly reports of receipts and expenditures from approved requesters, and would require the filing of a report accounting for all receipts and expenditures in any of the affected funds with the board and certain legislative committees within one year of initial approval and annually thereafter if approval is extended by the board.
