Bill Summary

For legislation relative to extending third-party delivery cost containment for restaurants. Economic Development and Emerging Technologies.

AI Summary

This bill aims to extend the cost containment measures for third-party food delivery services that were previously implemented during the COVID-19 pandemic. Specifically, it removes the language limiting the cost containment provisions to the duration of the COVID-19 emergency, effectively making them a permanent part of the law. This will help ensure that restaurants continue to be protected from excessive fees charged by third-party delivery platforms even after the pandemic has ended.
