MODERATE

The bill was amended to add several new sponsors and update the legislative history to reflect that the bill was discharged from committee and reprinted with amendments. The substantive policy text was simplified by removing a repeal of subdivision 3 of section 491 of the social services law, leaving only the repeal of section 420 regarding penalties for mandated reporters.

Scope change

The bill's scope of substantive policy remains focused on repealing specific penalty provisions for mandated reporters; however, the legislative history now indicates the bill has been amended and discharged from committee.

TECHNICAL

Added multiple new sponsors to the bill, including Gallagher, Forrest, Bronson, Meeks, Clark, Gonzalez-Rojas, Gibbs, Rosenthal, Shrestha, Taylor, Cruz, Tapia, R. Carroll, Simon, Raga, and Chandler-Waterman.

Updated the legislative history to show the bill was recommitted to the Committee on Children and Families, discharged, amended, and ordered reprinted.

Adjusted the bill title slightly to remove the word 'certain' before 'civil and criminal penalties' and renumbered the remaining sections accordingly.

REQUIREMENT

Removed Section 5, which previously called for the repeal of subdivision 3 of section 491 of the social services law.
