19528. The California Horse Racing Board is hereby authorized to enter into the interstate compact identified in Section 19527 for the purposes described therein, provided that this state’s participation in this compact does not result in the diminution of applicable existing standards established for licensure in California with regard to an applicant’s criminal history and does not prevent the enforcement of any state law or regulation affecting any licensee. The California Horse Racing Board’s entry into the interstate compact identified in Section 19527 shall not relieve any individual or entity of its duty to obtain any license or pay any fee otherwise required by this chapter. An individual designated by the California Horse Racing Board shall be responsible for representing California in conjunction with the administration of the compact.
