AN ACT CONCERNING THE SUBMISSION OF CERTAIN PISTOL PERMITS DIRECTLY TO THE DIVISION OF STATE POLICE.

SB 569 requires residents in towns without a police department to submit pistol permit applications directly to the Division of State Police, rather than local authorities. This change aims to reduce administrative burden on towns lacking police departments by shifting permit processing to the state level. The bill does not alter permit eligibility or safety standards, only the submission process for affected applicants. (Bill: SB 569, 2025 Connecticut General Assembly)
