This Bill amends the Liquor Control Act to add a provision that permits persons to import or cause to be imported wine into Nova Scotia from another province if the wine is for their personal consumption and not for resale or other commercial use.

77A Nothing in this Act prevents a person from importing or causing to be imported wine into the Province from another province of Canada if the wine is for that individual's personal consumption and not for resale or other commercial use.
