Legislative History

(1953, S. 2174d, 2175d; P.A. 93-139, S. 70; P.A. 99-194, S. 26.) History: P.A. 93-139 made technical changes and deleted former Subsec. (b) prohibiting sale or dispensing of liquor without a permit by clubs, associations, fraternal organizations, etc., relettering former Subsecs. (c) and (d) accordingly; P.A. 99-194 made a technical change. Regulation is constitutionally valid exercise of police power, both as to its purpose in regulating business which could be dangerous to public health, safety and morals and in the reasonable provisions adopted to accomplish the purpose; putting the risk of knowing the facts on defendant is permissible. 4 Conn.
