AN ACT relating to vital records.

Summary

The measure revises Kentucky’s vital‑records statutes to establish maximum fees for certified copies, directs a portion of birth‑certificate fees to abuse‑prevention groups and therapeutic nutrition for genetic conditions, and creates fee waivers for military members, homeless individuals, disaster victims and others. It also makes certified copies legally equivalent to originals, limits who may issue false copies, and obligates the health cabinet to supply death data to the State Board of Elections so voter rolls can be purged within five days of certain notifications. The bill failed to pass and was last sent back to the House Appropriations & Revenue Committee.
