For legislation relative to negligent property inspections. The Judiciary.

AI Summary

This bill proposes to amend Chapter 258 of the General Laws by removing Section 10, subparagraph (f) in its entirety. Chapter 258 deals with the Massachusetts Tort Claims Act, which governs the circumstances under which the state and its municipalities can be held liable for negligence. The removed subparagraph likely exempted the state or municipalities from liability for negligent property inspections. By removing this exemption, the bill aims to hold the state and its municipalities accountable for negligent property inspections.
