Louisiana. Requires the report to specifically address awareness and growth, to the extent
known, of any unregulated gaming such as Internet or online games, address Internet gaming
in jurisdictions in which it is authorized and any enforcement issues the jurisdiction is
experiencing with age verification and geo-location, and identify issues for legislative
concern and make recommendations regarding such concerns.
Effective August 1, 2014.
