Gambling Control Act: administration.
Summary
The Gambling Control Act provides for the California Gambling Control Commission, consisting of 5 members appointed by the Governor, subject to confirmation by the Senate. Under existing law a majority of the commission members is a quorum and the concurring vote of 3 members of the commission is required for any official action. This bill would instead require a majority of the appointed members of the commission to constitute a quorum and the affirmative vote of a majority of those members present at a meeting of the commission shall be required to render a decision, to pass a motion, or for the exercise of any of the commission's duties, powers, or functions.
