This bill mandates specific actions for law enforcement officers when they receive a request from a parent or guardian to remove a child from a home where illegal drugs are suspected to be used in the child's presence. The officers are required to secure and remove the illegal drugs, place them into evidence, and forward the request to the State Central Registry for referral to a child protective investigator. Additionally, they must request an immediate response from the investigator and coordinate with them during the investigation.

To implement these procedures, the Department of Children and Families, in collaboration with the Department of Law and Public Safety, is tasked with adopting rules and regulations under the "Administrative Procedure Act." The bill is designed to enhance the protection of children in environments where illegal drug use is present, ensuring that law enforcement takes prompt and coordinated action in such situations. The act is set to take effect immediately upon passage.
