This bill modifies the effective date for the law concerning the collection and reporting of abortion statistics. Specifically, it changes the effective date from January 1, 2027, to July 1, 2027, as indicated in the amendment to RSA 329:49-a. This adjustment is part of a request from the Department of Health and Human Services.
In addition to the change in the effective date, the bill stipulates that it will take effect immediately upon its passage. This means that the new effective date for the abortion statistics law will be established without delay once the bill is enacted.
