Amend the Equipment Business Regulation Act to change provisions relating to dealer agreements and the return of surplus repair parts
This bill (LB 875) modifies Nebraska's Equipment Business Regulation Act to protect equipment dealers from unfair supplier practices. It prohibits suppliers from forcing dealers to accept unwanted equipment or parts (Section 87-704), and requires suppliers to provide annual opportunities for dealers to return surplus parts with specific credit terms (Section 87-706). Key provisions include: dealers must be allowed to return parts worth at least 6% of their annual purchases, receive 85% credit based on current prices, and have 90 days for credit issuance. The bill directly affects dealers who sell equipment like agricultural or construction machinery, ensuring fairer terms in their agreements and part returns.
