An Act relative to business transactions
This bill amends Massachusetts law to create an exemption for specific business-to-business transactions involving catalytic converters. It allows buyers to purchase these converters from registered businesses that manufacture them or regularly generate used ones without needing a special dealer license. Under the new rules, these licensed businesses must record the date, time, quantity, and proof of their business status for each transaction. The change aims to streamline commercial trade in catalytic converters while maintaining oversight through mandatory documentation.
