The bill outlines the procedures and requirements for the testing and reporting of previously untested investigatory Sexual Assault Evidence Collection Kits (SAECKs) as mandated by Section 2 of Chapter 35 of the Acts of 2021. It establishes that the state police crime laboratory must identify untested kits containing quantity limited evidence within 90 days of the act's effective date and notify the relevant prosecuting district attorney's office. Additionally, all untested kits not identified as quantity limited must be transferred to an accredited laboratory for testing within 180 days. The Executive Office of Public Safety and Security (EOPSS) is required to file quarterly reports detailing the status of these kits, including the number collected, tested, and the results entered into the Combined DNA Index System (CODIS).

The bill also specifies the criteria for determining which SAECKs do not require testing, such as cases where no crime occurred or where the evidence is unsuitable for DNA analysis. As of June 30, 2025, the Massachusetts State Police Crime Laboratory (MSPCL) reported that it had tested a significant number of kits and uploaded numerous DNA profiles into CODIS. The MSPCL continues to work with prosecuting attorneys to ensure all eligible kits are tested and reported on, aiming to enhance the effectiveness of sexual assault investigations and prosecutions.
