Bill Summary
Relative to the sale and purchase of butane and propane. The Judiciary.
AI Summary
This bill amends Chapter 270 of the General Laws to regulate the sale and purchase of butane and propane. It prohibits the sale, furnishing, or provision of butane or propane to anyone under the age of 18, except in cases where a parent, guardian, or adult instructor is providing it to the minor. Violators are subject to fines. The bill also penalizes anyone who misrepresents their age or falsifies identification to purchase butane or propane. Sellers who reasonably rely on valid forms of identification, such as a driver's license or passport, are presumed to have exercised due care and are not liable under this law.
