MINOR

This bill was updated from its original filed version to a committee substitute, incorporating changes made by the Health Policy Committee. The primary substantive change is the specific reference to companion legislation (SB 1684), which establishes the Parkinson's Disease Registry. Without this companion bill, the exemption from public records laws in this bill would not take effect.

Scope change

The bill's applicability is now explicitly tied to the passage of SB 1684; it will only become law if that companion bill is also adopted in the same session.

TIMELINE

The effective date of the bill is now contingent on the enactment of SB 1684, replacing a placeholder reference to undefined legislation.

TECHNICAL

The bill title was updated to reflect its status as a Committee Substitute, and the filing timestamp was revised to the current date.

The bill number was updated from the original placeholder to the official committee substitute number.
