About this statute

This law states that it sets the special regime for the rent monopoly on distilled spirits and modifies the consumption tax on liquor, wine, aperitifs, and similar products. The monopoly on distilled liquors is for generating departmental resources, mainly to fund education and health services and protect public health. The provision defines the liquor monopoly and the term “distilled liquor,” and lets the national government define product categories by regulation. It also says certain wines, aperitifs, and some cane-based alcoholic drinks are free to produce and introduce. El artículo regula el alcohol potable y no potable: algunos actores deben registrarse en Sianco, cierto alcohol potable debe desnaturalizarse, y la policía puede incautar alcohol no registrado o no desnaturalizado. Departmental assemblies must decide whether to run the distilled-liquor monopoly, based on the governor’s initiative and a feasibility/revenue study.
