Public health and safety; Oklahoma Public Health and Safety Reform Act of 2025; effective date.

HB 1696 is a procedural bill that names the "Oklahoma Public Health and Safety Reform Act of 2025" and sets its effective date for November 1, 2025. It contains no substantive policy changes or mechanisms, as it is explicitly stated to be "noncodified" (not added to Oklahoma’s official statutes). The bill solely establishes the act’s name and effective date without altering public health or safety laws. This is a standard procedural measure, not a policy reform.
