Bill Summary

Message from His Excellency the Governor returning with recommendation of amendment the engrossed Bill further regulating the recorking of wine (see House, No.199, changed and amended).

AI Summary

This bill, originally intended to allow taverns, clubs, and war veterans' organizations to let patrons take home partially consumed, resealed bottles of wine, is being returned by the Governor with a recommended amendment. The Governor explains that the bill, as currently written, inadvertently created uncertainty about which establishments are authorized to permit this practice, unlike existing laws that already grant this privilege to hotels, restaurants, and continuing care retirement communities. To clarify and ensure the intended authorization is granted to taverns, clubs, and war veterans' organizations, the Governor proposes striking the words "the holder of" from line 6 of the bill.
