Bill Summary
AN ACT To amend Chapter 1A of Title 20 of the Official Code of Georgia Annotated, relating to early care and learning, so as to revise the requirements of child care learning centers and family child care learning homes; to require that such centers and homes maintain commercial general liability insurance; to provide for related matters; to provide for an effective date; to repeal conflicting laws; and for other purposes.
AI Summary
This bill requires child care learning centers and family child care learning homes in Georgia to maintain commercial general liability insurance with specific minimum coverage levels. Specifically, these child care facilities must now have an insurance policy that provides at least $500,000 in coverage for a single occurrence of bodily injury or property damage, with a total aggregate coverage of $1 million. This new requirement aims to provide additional financial protection for child care facilities in the event of accidents or incidents that might result in injury or property damage. The bill will go into effect upon receiving the Governor's approval or becoming law without such approval, and it automatically repeals any existing laws that conflict with its provisions.
