The bill proposes the addition of a new section to Minnesota Statutes, chapter 325F, specifically addressing the sale of flavored nitrous oxide. It defines "flavored nitrous oxide" as a canister containing nitrous oxide that imparts a taste or smell and is sold by a retailer. The bill establishes that a retailer, defined as any person engaged in the business of selling flavored nitrous oxide to consumers in Minnesota, is prohibited from selling or offering flavored nitrous oxide for sale.
Furthermore, the bill stipulates that any person who violates this prohibition will be guilty of a misdemeanor. This legislation aims to regulate the sale of flavored nitrous oxide in Minnesota, reflecting concerns over its potential misuse and health implications.
