The bill amends the Food Law of Michigan by updating Section 4105 to clarify the exemptions from licensure requirements for various individuals, establishments, and organizations. Notable insertions include the addition of new categories of exemptions, such as individuals operating under the requirements of 1978 PA 260, and specific conditions for retail outlets selling prepackaged honey or maple syrup. The bill also specifies that certain food establishments, such as temporary food establishments and mobile food establishments, are exempt if they meet defined criteria, including the type of food served and the manner of operation.

Additionally, the bill modifies existing language to enhance clarity and consistency, such as changing "operating" to "operates" in several instances. It also emphasizes that food service establishments can transport food to temporary serving locations without requiring separate licensure, provided that no food preparation occurs at those locations. The amendments aim to streamline regulations while ensuring food safety and compliance within the state.
