House Bill No. by Representative Carver amends the vital records law in Louisiana to expand the list of entities entitled to receive death certificates. Specifically, the bill enacts a new provision under R.S. 40:41(C)(1)(k), which allows federally insured banks and federally insured credit unions, along with their duly authorized agents, to access death certificates. This addition aims to facilitate the process for these financial institutions in handling matters related to deceased individuals.

The bill does not delete any existing provisions but rather adds to the current law by including these financial entities as eligible recipients of death certificates. This change is intended to streamline the process for banks and credit unions when they require such vital records for their operations.
