Amend the bill by striking out the title and substituting the following:
‘An Act To Remove the Disqualification from Obtaining a Liquor License for a Law Enforcement Officer Who Does Not Directly Benefit Financially’
Amend the bill by striking out everything after the enacting clause and before the summary and inserting the following:
‘Sec. 1. 28-A MRSA §601, sub-§2, ¶F, as amended by PL 1995, c. 192, §1, is repealed and the following enacted in its place:
 
F. The applicant is a law enforcement officer or if a law enforcement officer benefits directly from the issuance of the license;’
 
SUMMARY
This amendment replaces the bill. Current law provides that an applicant is disqualified from obtaining a retail liquor license if a full-time law enforcement officer benefits financially directly or indirectly. The amendment provides that the disqualification only applies if the full-time law enforcement officer directly benefits financially.
