AN ACT to amend the executive law, in relation to the requirements for filing a complaint with the Division of Human Rights

AI Summary

This bill amends the Executive Law to change the requirements for filing a complaint with the Division of Human Rights. Specifically, it removes the requirement that a complaint be "verified" and instead allows it to be filed "under oath or by declaration." Additionally, it updates the title of the official who can file a complaint on their own motion from the "chair of the commission on quality of care for the mentally disabled" to the "executive director of the justice center for the protection of people with special needs." The bill is intended to streamline the complaint filing process with the Division of Human Rights.
