STATE OF NEW HAMPSHIRE
In the Year of Our Lord Two Thousand Four
A RESOLUTION prohibiting the liquor commission from adopting proposed administrative rule Liq 404.05(d)(3).
Whereas, in proposal 2003-30 the liquor commission proposed administrative rule Liq 404.05(d)(3), relative to the requirements for certain liquor licensees to extend their service to areas outside their licensed premises; and
Whereas, the joint legislative committee on administrative rules voted on September 18, 2003 to enter a final objection and to sponsor a joint resolution on the grounds that the liquor commission has exceeded its authority by establishing occupancy requirements for the service area while the general court has elected not to establish such requirements; and
Whereas, the joint legislative committee on administrative rules voted on September 18, 2003 to enter a final objection and to sponsor a joint resolution on the grounds that the municipal notice provisions are not clear and understandable, and are therefore not in the public interest; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives in General Court convened:
That the general court of the state of New Hampshire hereby prohibits the liquor commission from adopting proposed administrative rule Liq 404.05(d)(3) as contained in proposal 2003-30; and
That the general court hereby directs the house commerce committee and the senate executive departments and administration committee to review whether the general court should establish occupancy requirements for extended service areas under RSA 178:24.
Approved: May 19, 2004
