The bill amends Chapter 16-24 of the General Laws, specifically by adding a new section that mandates public school districts to increase transparency and accessibility regarding their special education local advisory committees. New insertions to the law require each district to post on their website either a link to the committee's website or provide contact information for the committee, as well as list the dates of the committee's meetings for the school year. The bill defines an "active" committee as one that meets at least four times per year, with the possibility of one meeting occurring during the summer if the district offers an extended school year program for students with disabilities.

Furthermore, the bill outlines procedures for when a committee is found to be inactive. Parents or guardians can notify the school superintendent using a written notice form prepared by the district. Upon receipt of such notice, the superintendent and the director of special education must investigate and take steps to activate the committee if necessary. Additionally, during any meeting involving a review, modification, or continuation of a disabled student's individual education program or 504 plan, the district must provide written notice to the responsible adult about the special education local advisory committee, including its contact information and meeting dates. The act is set to take effect upon passage.
