This bill amends section 775.15 of the Florida Statutes to modify the statute of limitations for offenses related to required reports concerning children. Specifically, it introduces a new provision stating that the limitations period for violations of section 39.201 does not commence until a law enforcement agency or another governmental agency, excluding the institution where the violation occurred, is made aware of the violation.

The bill aims to ensure that the time frame for prosecuting such offenses is extended until authorities are notified, thereby potentially increasing accountability and enforcement regarding the reporting of child-related violations. The act is set to take effect on July 1, 2026.
