It is hereby found and determined by the General Assembly that the current law pertaining to auctioneers is out of date and is not being enforced, there is no administrative agency to enforce the laws pertaining to auctioneers, Arkansas does not have the ability, without legislation, to enter into reciprocal agreements with other states to allow the persons licensed as auctioneers in Arkansas to engage in the business of auctioneering in other states, auctioneers are not required to establish an escrow account to handle money belonging to others, and without legislation the level of professionalism desired by auctioneers cannot be attained. Therefore, it is the purpose of this chapter to establish a board to license and regulate auctioneers, other than livestock auction barn auctioneers and auctioneers conducting certain kinds of auctions.
