The bill amends Section 22-9A-6 of the Code of Alabama 1975, specifically addressing the information included on state-administered death certificates. The key change is the prohibition of including the date of disposition on these certificates, which is a new insertion in the law. Additionally, the language regarding how the board determines the items or information to be contained on various certificates has been slightly modified, maintaining the requirement for the board to establish these details by rule.

The act is set to take effect on October 1, 2026, and it also allows for the filing and registration of required information through various means, such as photographic or electronic methods, as prescribed by the State Registrar. This legislative change aims to streamline the information presented on death certificates while ensuring compliance with updated regulations.
