Bill Summary
Amending Title 35 (Health and Safety) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, in miscellaneous provisions relating to emergency management services, providing for Right-to-Know Law access.
AI Summary
This bill amends the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes to specify that volunteer emergency medical services (EMS) companies, volunteer fire companies, and volunteer rescue companies are not considered "local agencies" under the state's Right-to-Know Law. This means that these volunteer organizations are not subject to the public records access requirements of the Right-to-Know Law. The bill provides definitions for the key terms "volunteer EMS company," "volunteer fire company," and "volunteer rescue company" as used in the new provision.
