  Section 1. Subdivisions 6 and 7 of section 100 of the alcoholic bever-
age control law, subdivision 6 as added by chapter 526 of  the  laws  of
1939  and subdivision 7 as added by chapter 256 of the laws of 1978, are
amended to read as follows:
  6. NOTWITHSTANDING SUBDIVISION FIVE OF THIS SECTION, A RETAIL LICENSEE
FOR OFF-PREMISES CONSUMPTION MAY  SELL,  DELIVER,  GIVE  AWAY,  HOLD  OR
STORE,  OR  CAUSE,  PERMIT OR PROCURE TO BE SOLD, DELIVERED, GIVEN AWAY,
HELD OR STORED, ANY ALCOHOLIC  BEVERAGE  ON  CREDIT  TO  ANY  INDIVIDUAL
PERSON,  PROVIDED  THAT  THE  ORDER  ON  CREDIT  IS AT LEAST TWO HUNDRED

PERSON.
  7. No licensee shall sell  or  purchase  any  receipts,  certificates,
contracts  or other documents issued for the storage of alcoholic bever-
ages except as provided by the rules of the liquor authority. The liquor
authority shall prescribe such rules for the purchase and sale  of  such
receipts,  certificates,  contracts  or  other  documents issued for the
storage of alcoholic beverages which, in its opinion, will  best  accom-
plish
  (1) Elimination of fraudulent and deceptive transactions;
  (2) Protection of purchasers against defaults by sellers;
  (3)  The  delivery  of  the  alcoholic  beverages  represented by such
receipts or documents, and
