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" with "on" in the context of receiving permission from the director, and it would also change "shall" to "does" to affirm that certain provisions do not apply if a license is transferred to a surviving spouse or guardian of a minor child during the specified period.

Additionally, the bill would allow individuals or representatives who possess spirituous liquor due to a security interest in a wholesaler's property to sell that liquor to a licensed retailer, 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, the bill aims to streamline and clarify the regulations surrounding the sale of spirituous liquors by licensed entities.
