  • Summary date: Mar 25 2015 - View Summary

    Repeals Section 5(c) of SL 2004-189, which required the Division of Motor Vehicles (DMV) to retain a portion of the proceeds of the increase in driver's license and duplicate license fees to offset the cost of developing and maintaining the online Organ Donor Internet, with remaining proceeds credited to the License to Give Trust Fund.

    Amends GS 20-7 to require the DMV to credit 2.5% from each fee for the issuance and renewal of a driver's license to the License to Give Trust Fund.

    Amends GS 20-7.4 to require that 50% of the funds credited to the License to Give Trust Fund be transferred quarterly to Donate Life North Carolina for costs associated with managing the online organ donation registry and promoting organ donation.

    Effective January 1, 2016, and applies to driver's license issuances and renewals on or after that date.
