Explanation

(The intent of this amendment is to transfer the Alcoholic Beverage Control Authority (ABC) from the Public Safety and Homeland Security Secretariat to Independent Agencies in the appropriation act. This amendment removes the program area related to alcoholic beverage merchandising from the Secretariat and companion amendments complete the transfer of all ABC program areas to Independent Agencies. This action aligns with ABC's status as an independent authority, as established by § 4.1-101, Code of Virginia.)
