Senate committee substitute makes the following changes to the 1st edition.
Alters the proposed changes to GS 18B-904(e)(4), which provides for summary suspension or revocation of permits by the ABC Commission, by order and without prior hearing, if two conditions are met. Further modifies the conditions to now require: (1) ALE agents or local ABC Board officers to have consulted with the Commission Legal Division staff regarding the ongoing undercover operation and the sufficiency of evidence gathered at the time of the consultation (previously, required ALE agents, local ABC Board officers, or local law enforcement agencies to provide advance notice to the Commission Legal Division staff of the ongoing undercover operation; did not require consultation or presentation of sufficiency of evidence gathered) and (2) upon execution of a search warrant resulting from the operation, five or more persons are criminally charged with the specified violations. Adds assault to the existing specified violations. Further, modifies the proposed notification requirement by the Commission to require prompt notification of the permittee (was, all interested parties) of the Commission's order and reasoning.
