An Act relative to microfilm
This bill amends a Massachusetts law to update record-keeping requirements. It replaces the phrase "micrographic process" with a new standard requiring documents to be entered "in a format approved by the Secretary of the Commonwealth." The change directly affects state government agencies that maintain official records, requiring them to use only formats certified by the Secretary's office instead of unspecified microfilm methods. This is a procedural update focused on modernizing record storage standards, not a substantive policy change.
