Loading...
Summary
Representatives introduced RS 32617, a trailer bill to H47, to require redaction of registered birth parents' names and other identifying details from records when those parents do not opt into information release.
Representative Joe Alfieri of District 4 introduced RS 32617, a trailer bill to House Bill H47, and asked the committee to approve it for filing.
Alfieri said the bill would change statutory release procedures so that "the registered birth parent's name and any other personally identifying information [are] redacted before records are released" when the birth parent elects not to participate in information sharing. He characterized the change as narrow and agreed to by the bill's sponsors.
Representative Scott moved to introduce RS 32,617. The committee voted in favor and the motion carried.
The measure was presented as a technical change tied to H47 and limited to redacting identifying information for birth parents who opt not to have their information released. The committee did not engage in extended debate during the introduction and no amendments were offered at this session.
The committee proceeded to other items after the vote; no hearing date or further procedural steps were announced during the segment covered in the transcript.
