8. a. The commission shall have full power to prescribe rules, regulations and conditions under which all off-track wagering licenses are issued and renewed in the State, including requiring an annual audit of the off-track wagering licensee's books and records pertaining to off-track wagering, and to revoke, suspend or refuse to renew a license if in the opinion of the commission the revocation of, suspension of or refusal to renew such license is in the public interest; provided, however, that such rules, regulations and conditions shall be uniform in their application. b. The commission shall have no right or power to determine who shall be officers, directors or employees of any off-track wagering facility, or the salaries thereof; provided, however, that the commission may compel the discharge of any official or employee of the licensee at the off-track wagering facility who: (1) fails or refuses for any reason to comply with the rules or regulations of the commission; (2) fails or refuses for any reason to comply with any of the provisions of this act; (3) fails to establish by clear and convincing evidence in the opinion of the commission good character, honesty, competency and integrity; or (4) has been convicted of a crime involving fraud, dishonesty or moral turpitude.
