AI Summary

This bill proposes to amend Chapter 6 of the General Laws to allow municipal fire chiefs to access Criminal Offender Record Information (CORI) when evaluating candidates for firefighter or emergency medical technician positions. CORI refers to records of an individual's criminal history. Currently, access to CORI is restricted, but this bill would create an exception, enabling fire chiefs to request and receive this information for hiring purposes, thereby enhancing their ability to make informed decisions about potential hires.
