The purpose of this hearing is to examine and receive comment on the overall impact of the proposed legislation on New York State manufacturers, wholesalers, retailers and consumers and on state revenues.

Ten copies of any prepared testimony should be submitted at the hearing registration desk. The Committee would appreciate advance receipt of prepared statements.
