Relating to authorizing the Division of Motor Vehicles to promulgate a legislative rule relating to disclosure of information from the files of the Division of Motor Vehicles

HB 2278 authorizes West Virginia's Division of Motor Vehicles (DMV) to implement a specific rule (91 CSR 08) governing how they disclose information from their records. This procedural bill directly affects the DMV's operations and individuals seeking access to their personal vehicle or driver information held by the DMV. The rule outlines procedures for releasing records while addressing prior legislative committee objections. The bill does not create new policies but formally authorizes the existing rule framework for public record disclosures.
