S 1596 Massachusetts Senate · 193rd Legislature (2023-2024)

An Act relative to the Technical Rescue Services Fund

This bill amends the Massachusetts General Laws to clarify how funds in the Technical Rescue Services Fund are managed and spent. It designates the state fire marshal as the co-administrator responsible for overseeing these funds alongside the technical rescue coordinating council. The change ensures that money from this fund is only used for technical rescue services when explicitly authorized by these designated officials.
