An Act relative to the board of registration in naturopathy

This bill amends the regulations governing the Massachusetts Board of Registration in Naturopathy to update how controlled substances are defined and how historical examination standards are referenced. Specifically, it changes the definition of controlled substances to include all Schedule I through V drugs rather than limiting the list to those under Chapter 94C. Additionally, the bill clarifies references to past state exams by explicitly including those that existed before 1987 in the board's regulatory framework. These changes directly affect the naturopathic board's authority over substance definitions and the recognition of legacy licensing requirements.
