AI Summary

This bill establishes a model carrier reporting requirement for corporations that bring, carry, or transport wine, beer, or distilled spirits into the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. It requires these entities to prepare and file monthly reports with the Alcoholic Beverages Control Commission (the Commission) that include details such as the supplier's name and license number, the quantity of alcohol shipped, the recipient's name and address, and the recipient's signature. The reports must be made available to the public through the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) process, and the underlying records must be kept for three years and made available to the Commission upon request. The bill also outlines penalties for violations, including notifications, possible license suspension or revocation, and fines for repeat offenses.
