Bill Summary
A bill to amend 1978 PA 368, entitled"Public health code,"by amending section 7451 (MCL 333.7451), as added by 1988 PA 139.
AI Summary
This bill amends the definition of "drug paraphernalia" in Michigan's Public Health Code. It maintains the existing definition, which includes equipment, products, or materials designed for use with controlled substances, but adds an exception for testing products used to determine if a controlled substance contains harmful chemicals or compounds, such as fentanyl testing strips. The goal of this change is to exclude certain testing products from being considered drug paraphernalia, which could help address public health concerns related to opioid overdoses.
