205 CMR 134.00 Licensing and Registration of Employees, Vendors, Junket Enterprises and Representatives, and Labor Organizations. These amendments include a set of proposed regulation updates to 205 CMR 134 resulting from a review of the past 18 months of MGC licensing operations to identify areas for process improvement and to gain efficiencies.
