Relates to participation in games of bingo by minors
This bill modifies New York's bingo regulations to allow minors under 18 to participate in licensed bingo games **only when accompanied by an adult**. It directly affects minors and bingo operators, prohibiting minors from operating or assisting with bingo games (though those aged 16+ may perform non-gaming tasks like serving food). The key provision replaces a prior ban on minor participation with an adult-supervision requirement for play. The law takes effect immediately upon enactment.
