A state representative issued a memo declaring his intention to propose amendments to the liquor code. Rep. Gene DiGirolamo, R-Bucks, said he would amend Act 39 to allow the Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board to negotiate with suppliers on all items in deciding markups.

According to DiGirolamo’s memo, he would also introduce legislation that would speed up the implementation of a program that would create a 400-square-foot “modular store” in supermarkets and large retail stores that would have more selections of alcoholic beverages. DiGirolamo said he would also expedite the review of Liquor Control Board leases by the Department of General Services, which he said is “very important for the aforementioned ‘store within a retail store’” program.
