IN RE: | HB2560 by Kuempel (Relating to delinquent payment of an alcoholic beverage retailer's account for liquor.), As Engrossed |
The bill would amend the Alcoholic Beverage Code by preventing the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission (TABC) from accepting voluntary cancellation or suspension of a permit, or allowing renewal or transfer of a permit if the permit holder is delinquent in the payment of an account for liquor. The bill would also prevent a permit holder whose permit is cancelled by the commission or whose permit has expired to hold another permit or license under the Alcoholic Beverage Code until the permit holder has resolved any delinquency.
This analysis assumes all costs associated with the bill can be absorbed within TABC’s current appropriations, and therefore would not result in a significant fiscal impact to the state.
