Measuring Impacts of 2SSB 6823

The Task Force recommends the LCB identify and select key impact measures that can be monitored and analyzed by the Fall of 2007, to provide the Legislature with data about the impacts related to the implementation of 2SSB 6823.

WSLCB Recommended Next Steps
An internal workgroup should be convened to determine data currently being collected and analyzed. Based on those findings, identify any additional impact measures needed to allow the LCB to collect data to effectively show how policy/rule changes affect the industry, consumers, the state, and society.
