Bill Summary

Relative to technical corrections to certain General Laws. State Administration and Regulatory Oversight.

AI Summary

This bill makes several technical corrections to existing Massachusetts General Laws, which are the state's compiled statutes. Specifically, it removes language from Chapter 4, Section 7, Subsection 26 that defined certain entities receiving or expending public funds for pension administration as "public employees," and it also amends Subsection 26c of the same section to clarify that certain information pertains to "living people" and to insert the word "living" after "named." Additionally, the bill adds a new sentence to Chapter 66, Section 7, stating that all records in the custody of the state secretary will be open for public inspection and copying after 75 years from their creation. Finally, it amends Chapter 46, Section 2A, by removing outdated and potentially offensive language related to "children born out of wedlock."
