  1  1    Section 1.  Section 123.47, Code 1995, is amended to read
  1  2 as follows:
  1  3    123.47  PERSONS UNDER THE AGE OF EIGHTEEN &endash; PENALTY.
  1  4    A person shall not sell, give, or otherwise supply
  1  5 alcoholic liquor, wine, or beer to any person knowing or
  1  6 having reasonable cause to believe that person to be under the
  1  7 age of eighteen, and a person or persons under the age of
  1  8 eighteen shall not purchase or attempt to purchase, or
  1  9 individually or jointly have alcoholic liquor, wine, or beer
  1 10 in their possession or control; except in the case of liquor,
  1 11 wine, or beer given or dispensed to a person under the age of
  1 12 eighteen within a private home and with the knowledge,
  1 13 presence, and consent of the parent or guardian, or with the
  1 14 signed, written consent of the parent or guardian specifying
  1 15 the date and place for the consumption and displayed by the
  1 16 person upon demand, for beverage or medicinal purposes or as
  1 17 administered to the person by either a physician or dentist
  1 18 for medicinal purposes and except to the extent that a person
  1 19 under the age of eighteen may handle alcoholic beverages,
  1 20 wine, and beer during the regular course of the person's
  1 21 employment by a liquor control licensee, or wine or beer
  1 22 permittee under this chapter.  A person, other than a licensee
  1 23 or permittee, who violates this section regarding the purchase
  1 24 of or attempt to purchase alcoholic liquor, wine, or beer
  1 25 shall pay a twenty-five dollar penalty.  
  1 26                           EXPLANATION
  1 27    This bill strikes language, added in 1994, that allows a
  1 28 person under age 18 to consume alcoholic beverages with the
  1 29 written consent of the person's parent or guardian and which
  1 30 is displayed upon request.  The bill now requires a juvenile's
  1 31 parent to be present in a private home for the juvenile to
  1 32 consume alcoholic beverages.
