FROM: | Ursula Parks, Director, Legislative Budget Board |
IN RE: | SB1345 by Hinojosa (Relating to the sale and distribution of certain alcoholic beverages.), As Introduced |
The bill would amend the Alcoholic Beverage Code to allow a wholesaler's permittee to sell distilled spirits to mixed beverage, airline beverage, or private club registration permittees. The bill would allow a holder of both a wholesaler's permit and a private carrier permit to transport and deliver distilled spirits to a mixed beverage, airline beverage, or private club registration permittee in an area where the sale of distilled spirits is legal. Mixed beverage and private club registration permittees who also hold a beverage cartage permit would be allowed to transport alcoholic beverages from a local distributor's or wholesaler's premises to the permittee's premises. The bill would take effect September 1, 2013.
It is assumed that the bill would not result in a significant fiscal impact to the State.
