AI Summary

This bill proposes to amend Chapter 111 of the General Laws by adding a new section that requires issuers of death certificates to provide an original death certificate to a licensed funeral director or undertaker's place of business within 24 hours of receiving a request. This aims to ensure that funeral directors, who are professionals responsible for handling deceased individuals and making funeral arrangements, receive the necessary documentation promptly to carry out their duties.
