Amending the act of April 12, 1951 (P.L.90, No.21), entitled "An act relating to alcoholic liquors, alcohol and malt and brewed beverages; amending, revising, consolidating and changing the laws relating thereto; regulating and restricting the manufacture, purchase, sale, possession, consumption, importation, transportation, furnishing, holding in bond, holding in storage, traffic in and use of alcoholic liquors, alcohol and malt and brewed beverages and the persons engaged or employed therein; defining the powers and duties of the Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board; providing for the establishment and operation of State liquor stores, for the payment of certain license fees to the respective municipalities and townships, for the abatement of certain nuisances and, in certain cases, for search and seizure without warrant; prescribing penalties and forfeitures; providing for local option, and repealing existing laws," in Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board, providing for self- exclusion.
AI Summary
This bill amends the Pennsylvania Liquor Code to provide for a self-exclusion program. The key provisions are:
- The Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board (PLCB) will establish a list of individuals who have voluntarily requested to be excluded from purchasing alcohol in the state. Individuals can request to be added to this list by providing personal information such as name, date of birth, address, and physical description.
- The self-exclusion period lasts for 5 years or until the individual requests to be removed from the list. Individuals can renew their self-exclusion at any time.
- The PLCB is required to maintain the self-exclusion list, which is not open to public inspection. Licensed entities and their employees are not liable for any harm to self-excluded individuals related to the provision or restriction of alcohol.
- The bill prohibits courts from ordering individuals to be added to the self-exclusion list, and also prevents the list from being used in court proceedings.
