(1949 Rev., S. 4288; 1971, P.A. 137; P.A. 75-642, S. 1; P.A. 81-367, S. 7, 9; P.A. 82-68, S. 2, 11; P.A. 93-139 , S. 64 .)
Statute did not prohibit employment of minor in package store. 123 C. 36 . Meaning of the word "employ" is not limited to services rendered for wages. 128 C. 653 . Regulation of commission held a "declaration" that an employee was "unsuitable". 131 Conn. 700 . Cited. 150 Conn. 425 . Statute should be strictly construed since it is in derogation of one's right to employ. 4 CS 60 . Former statute held in direct conflict with U.S. treaty with Italy. Id., 343. Commission must establish violation. Id., 350. Cited. 10 CS 122 . First sentence construed; statute addressed to employers and not to employees, and a regulation requiring all persons intending to sell liquor to obtain a certificate of approval was an attempt to legislate rather than regulate and is not sanctioned by section. Id., 489. Mere revocation of employee's tavern permit constituted a declaration of unsuitability within the intendment of section. 12 CS 429.
See Secs. 30-45 , 30-46 and 30-47 re mandatory and discretionary refusal of permits, respectively.
