In addition to the increases estimated above, this bill requires each distilled spirits brand owner to pay on a monthly basis a bond removal excise fee of twenty-five cents per liter of
finished bottles or packages removed from a bond tax determined or transferred in bond. The Liquor and Cannabis Board has no data from which to estimate these fee totals, so the ten-year cost to fee payers of this element of the bill is indeterminate.
