The bill aims to enhance public safety by repealing outdated fire safety measures that pre-date the statewide fire code in Minnesota. Specifically, it repeals Minnesota Statutes 2024, sections 325F.02 through 325F.07, which include regulations on the manufacture, sale, and storage of matches, as well as requirements for flame-resistant public assembly tents. The repeal is intended to streamline fire safety regulations and eliminate provisions that are no longer relevant or effective in ensuring public safety.

By removing these statutes, the bill seeks to modernize the legal framework surrounding fire safety in Minnesota. The repealed sections included detailed requirements for match safety, labeling, storage, and penalties for violations, which may no longer align with current safety standards or practices. The legislation reflects a shift towards more contemporary regulations that are better suited to current public safety needs.
