This bill allows nonprofit corporations to conduct charity auctions without requiring the individuals hired for auctioneering services to have a license. The bill amends RSA 311-B:13 by inserting new paragraphs that specify the conditions under which non-member individuals may provide auctioneering services for charitable, educational, religious, or other nonprofit organizations within the state. According to the new paragraphs, a written contract is required for auctioneering services, which must outline the auctioneer's duties and compensation, and explicitly state that the auctioneer cannot have custody or control of the auction's revenues, nor receive a commission from sales or a percentage of the revenues.

The bill also defines that political advocacy organizations, as described in RSA 664:2, XXII, are not to be considered as charitable, educational, religious, or other nonprofit organizations for the purposes of the new paragraphs. The act is set to take effect 60 days after its passage, with an approved date of August 02, 2024, and an effective date of October 01, 2024. There are no deletions indicated in the provided text of the bill.
