Interim Study Report: Not Recommended for Future Legislation 10/22/2026 (Vote 12-1;)
Summary
The bill would require any New Hampshire municipality that plans to transport a homeless or substance‑use‑affected person to another town for shelter or treatment to first sign a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with the receiving municipality. The MOU must detail services, financial contributions, limits on transfers, coordination and reporting, and violations would trigger a $5,000 fine. The Department of Health and Human Services would issue rules to enforce the MOUs and to govern related opioid‑abatement and syringe‑service programs.
