Statement of Purpose / Fiscal Impact


                         STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
                               RS 8326C1

This legislation is a result of the Alcohol Laws Interim Study
Committee. Currently, all brewers, wineries, distributors and
importers are required to report their sales monthly. The report must
be notarized. Alcohol Beverage Control personnel do not use these
reports, although they are transmitted to industry representatives as
a public document. It was agreed that the records should not require
notarization-and that quarterly reports would be sufficient for all
current uses. All original records continue to be subject to
inspection by law enforcement or tax commission agents.


                              FISCAL NOTE


No fiscal impact to the general fund.
