Bill summary

Senate amendments make the following changes to the 4th edition. 

Amendment #1 states that proposed GS 15A-306, which provides that certain documents are not acceptable for use in determining a person's actual identity or residency, does not apply to verification provided by an applicant pursuant to GS 58-2-164, which governs fraud prevention in auto insurance policies, until the act's changes to GS 58-2-164 become effective. The amendment also provides an effective date of the changes to GS 58-2-164 of January 1, 2016, and applies to insurance policies entered into on or after that date. 

Amendment #2 adds a sentence to the act's prohibition of the Department of Health and Human Services from seeking certain waivers. The new sentence states that nothing in the section should be construed as requiring termination of a waiver in place as of September 1, 2015.
