This bill proposes amendments to the existing law regarding the sale of Lucky 7 tickets, specifically concerning the ticket dispenser devices. The bill removes the requirement for Lucky 7 ticket dispenser devices to have the capability of printing a paper ticket. The legal language being deleted from the current law includes the stipulation that the device dispenses a paper or cardboard ticket and that devices capable of displaying the outcome on a video monitor must provide the option of printing a paper ticket.

The bill also clarifies that the outcome of any wager involving a permitted Lucky 7 device shall be determined by the video monitor, removing the previous requirement for the outcome to be determined by the cardboard or paper ticket or the video monitor when so equipped. The bill maintains the restriction that no charitable organization may be licensed to sell Lucky 7 tickets for more than 16 days per month when selling tickets at a facility licensed under RSA 287-D. The act is set to take effect 60 days after its passage, with an approved date of June 14, 2024, and an effective date of August 13, 2024.
