The proposed bill, if enacted, would amend current statutes regarding alcoholic beverage licensing in Arizona. Specifically, it would modify the language in section 4-204 to clarify the conditions under which individuals acting on behalf of a licensee can sell spirituous liquors. The bill would replace the phrase "upon receiving permission from the director" with "on receiving permission from the director," streamlining the language. Additionally, it would change "This section shall not apply" to "This section does not apply," further clarifying the conditions under which the provisions are applicable.

Furthermore, the bill would allow individuals or representatives who possess spirituous liquor due to enforcement of a security interest to sell that liquor to licensed entities for resale, provided they receive permission from the director. This change would remove previous restrictions outlined in sections 4-201, 4-203, and 4-243.01, thereby expanding the authority granted under this subsection. Overall, these updates aim to enhance clarity and operational efficiency within the existing framework of liquor licensing laws.
