MINOR

The bill was amended to significantly narrow its application. Originally, the law applied only to specific deceased license holders who died after January 1, 2013, and had designated a family member for reissuance. The amendment removes these specific conditions, allowing the new definition of 'immediate family' to apply to any license or permit reissued on or after the effective date.

Scope change

The bill's scope changed from a limited, retroactive application to a broad, forward-looking application covering all future reissued licenses and permits.

ELIGIBILITY

Removed the requirement that the license or permit holder must have died after January 1, 2013.

Removed the requirement that the deceased holder must have previously designated a family member in writing for reissuance.

TIMELINE

Changed the effective application from a specific past date to any license or permit reissued on or after the act takes effect.
