This bill amends current law to authorize the Division of Gaming Enforcement in New Jersey to participate in multi-state or national self-exclusion programs for gaming activities. It allows individuals to request to join multiple self-exclusion lists across different states using a single form, streamlining the process for those who wish to self-exclude from gambling in various jurisdictions. The bill also enables the division to enter into agreements with other states for the mutual enforcement of self-exclusion lists, enhancing the effectiveness of responsible gaming measures.

To facilitate these changes, the bill mandates the division to establish necessary rules, procedures, and forms for the implementation of the new programs or agreements. Importantly, it ensures that individuals can choose which states their information may be shared with and prohibits the division from disclosing any individual's information without their express authorization. This legislative update aims to improve the self-exclusion process and promote responsible gaming across state lines.
