The bill amends Chapter 23-3 of the General Laws, titled "Vital Records," by introducing a new section, 23-3-25.2, which provides an exemption for certain incarcerated persons from the payment of fees for a first request for vital statistics from the Department of Health. Specifically, it states that any incarcerated person who is set to be released from prison to re-enter the community shall be processed without a charge or fee when making their first request for their own personal records. This act is set to take effect upon passage.
