AI Summary

This bill reorganizes certain licensing agencies of the executive department in Massachusetts. It changes the name of the Division of Professional Licensure to the Division of Occupational Licensure and transfers several boards currently under the Division of Professional Licensure to the Department of Public Health. The bill aims to create a "one-stop-shop" for consumers by unifying healthcare professional practice standards and regulatory enforcement efforts under the Department of Public Health, which already operates in a similar manner to the Division of Professional Licensure. The transition process will involve transferring staff, financial resources, and relevant trust funds to the Department of Public Health to ensure continuity and preserve institutional knowledge.
