From the link:
The current cap on fees that a third-party delivery service may charge a restaurant for the use of their service is 15% for delivery, 3% for credit card processing, and 5% for any other fees. This bill would replace these limits with a maximum fee of 15% for delivery, 3% for credit card processing, and 25% for any other fees. It would only permit these higher fees, however, if the delivery service offers the option to obtain delivery services and be listed and discoverable on the third-party platform at a cost no higher than the current fee limits. This bill would also restrict third-party food delivery services from purchasing the name of a food service establishment for purposes of internet advertising. This bill would allow food service establishments to include marketing materials in orders made through third-party food delivery services, and it would allow food service establishments to charge different prices for items ordered through a third-party food delivery service. This bill would also update the reporting requirements regarding the fee caps, requiring the Department of Consumer and Worker Protection to report on the effect of the cap and the exemptions on third-party food delivery services, food service establishments and third-party food delivery service workers.
There is a link to the committee report dated today, but have not gone through it in detail.
