     4  of the authority's enforcement activities  for  the  preceding  quarter.
     5  Such  report  shall  be  made within twenty-five days of the end of each
     6  quarter and posted to the authority's website and the state's open  data
     7  portal,  in  a  machine-readable format. Such report shall include:  (i)
     8  information on the number of inspections aggregated statewide,  as  well
     9  as  disaggregated  by  county,  senate  and assembly districts, (ii) the

    23  the amendments to section 18 of the alcoholic beverage control law  made
    24  by  section  one  of  this  act  shall not affect the expiration of such
    25  section and shall be deemed to expire therewith.
