Removes language providing that a cooperative agent that is compliant with certain provisions may receive cash or anything of value from both the retail licensee and an importing distributor or distributor, non-resident dealer or manufacturers as part of a cooperative purchase group agreement. Provides that cooperative agents and cooperative purchase groups may not have an ownership interest, direct or indirect, in any business or enterprise that provides marketing services or activities on behalf of manufacturers, non-resident dealers, foreign importers, importing distributors, and distributors. Provides that it is the duty of every cooperative agent and cooperative purchase group to make books and records available upon reasonable notice for the purpose of investigation and control by the Illinois Liquor Control Commission or any local liquor commission having jurisdiction over a licensee member of a cooperative purchase group. Makes changes concerning the surety bond a cooperative purchase group is required to retain.
