Adds to existing law to provide for the donation of liquor for benevolent, charitable, or public purposes.
The current law, as it stands, is confusing for suppliers. The law permits suppliers to donate packaged liquor for promotional purposes, however, the recipients of the donated liquor are not allowed to sell that liquor in any fashion, including raffles or silent auctions. Many suppliers would like to support these causes in a meaningful way, and ABC and the ISLD do spend considerable time addressing these inquiries and explaining the nuances of the law and the reasons charities cannot use the donated product to raise money.
