Under IC 4-22-2-24, notice is hereby given that on July 23, 2008, at 2:00 p.m., at the Indiana Gaming Commission, 101 West Washington Street, Suite 1600-East Tower, Indianapolis, Indiana, the Indiana Gaming Commission will hold a public hearing on a proposed amendment regarding the definition of "slot machine".

The Indiana Gaming Commission has the authority to promulgate rules in accordance with the requirements of IC 4-33 and IC 4-35. The proposed rule changes the definition of "slot machine" from only referencing "electronic gaming device" to developing a separate set of criteria for what constitutes a "slot machine". The creation of IC 4-35 and the slot machine facilities at Indiana's horse tracks prompted the Indiana Gaming Commission to clarify which types of electronic gaming devices will be considered "slot machines". The proposed rule does not impose costs on the state or upon small businesses, as defined in IC 4-22-2.1-4.

Copies of these rules are now on file at the Indiana Gaming Commission, 101 West Washington Street, Suite 1600–East Tower and Legislative Services Agency, One North Capitol, Suite 325, Indianapolis, Indiana, and are open for public inspection.
