Bill Summary
For legislation to lower the cost of creating record copies for historical researchers. State Administration and Regulatory Oversight.
AI Summary
This bill proposes to amend Chapter 46 of the General Laws by adding a new section that will allow custodians of birth, marriage, and death records to provide non-certified copies of these records on plain paper, rather than the more expensive safety paper, for historical researchers. These non-certified copies will be clearly marked as "for research purposes only, not to be used as evidence" and will cost 20% of the price of a certified copy, thereby lowering the expense for individuals conducting historical research.
