Replaces everything after the enacting clause. Amends the Video Gaming Act. Provides that the Illinois Gaming Board shall provide written notice of an alleged violation of provisions concerning the use of a video terminal by a minor to establishments licensed to conduct video gaming within 15 days after the alleged occurrence of the violation. Provides that video gaming terminals in a licensed truck stop establishment must be located in an area restricted to persons over 21 years of age and the entrance to the area must be within the view of at least one employee of the establishment who is over 21 years of age, or monitored through a closed circuit television monitor located on the premises and within the direct view of at least one employee of the establishment who is over 21 years of age (rather than located in an area restricted to persons over 21 years of age the entrance to which is within the view of at least one employee, who is over 21 years of age, of the licensed truck stop establishment). Provides that the Board shall establish a policy and standards for compliance operations to investigate whether an establishment licensed to conduct video gaming is permitting any person under the age of 21 years to use or play a video gaming terminal in violation of the Act or furnishing alcoholic liquor to persons under 21 years of age in violation of the Liquor Control Act of 1934. Requires the Board to adopt emergency and permanent rules concerning the policy and standards for compliance operations. Provides that an establishment licensed to conduct video gaming that is the subject of an enforcement action under these provisions and is found, pursuant to the enforcement action, to be in compliance with the Act shall be notified by the Board that no violation was found within 30 days after the finding. Effective immediately.
