This bill directs
the Bureau of Alcoholic Beverages and Lottery Operations (BABLO) within the
Department of Administrative and Financial Services to conduct a review of
the direct shipment of wine to consumers in the State, the feasibility of
allowing in-state and out-of-state spirits manufacturers to sell and ship
spirits directly to Maine consumers and the impact that direct-to-consumer
spirits sales may have on consumer spirits choice and state revenues. BABLO
is required to report its findings by February 15, 2023. Due to the scope of
this review and the timeline for reporting, BABLO anticipates the need to
utilize contracted services. The bill includes a one-time appropriation of
$100,000 to BABLO for the cost of the contracted services. |
