SB451,1,2 1An Act to create 100.20 (2) (c) of the statutes; relating to: the sale or rental of
2soda water beverage equipment.
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
This bill prohibits the Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer
Protection from regulating the terms of sale or rental of soda water beverage
equipment that is not a coin-operated vending machine. Current law authorizes
DATCP to promulgate rules prohibiting methods of competition and trade practices
that it determines are unfair. Using this authority, DATCP has promulgated rules
regulating the terms of sale or rental of soda water beverage equipment when the
equipment is sold or rented out by wholesalers. Under this bill, DATCP is prohibited
from enforcing rules it has promulgated that regulate the terms of sale or rental of
soda water beverage equipment that is not a coin-operated vending machine.
For further information see the state fiscal estimate, which will be printed as
an appendix to this bill.
The people of the state of Wisconsin, represented in senate and assembly, do
enact as follows:
SB451,1 3Section 1. 100.20 (2) (c) of the statutes is created to read:
