The 193rd General Court of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts

AN ACT RELATIVE TO PROOF OF IDENTITY FOR CERTAIN LICENSURE

     Whereas, The deferred operation of this act would tend to defeat its purpose, which is to ensure forthwith appropriate identification for certain licensure, therefore it is hereby declared to be an emergency law, necessary for the immediate preservation of the public convenience.

     Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives in General Court assembled, and by the authority of the same as follows:
     Section 32 of chapter 147 of the General Laws, as appearing in the 2012 Official Edition, is hereby amended by adding the following subsection:-
     (e)  A license may be granted to an applicant under this section and sections 33, 35, 35A, 36 and 37, notwithstanding the social security number requirements of section 13A of chapter 30A; provided, however, that the applicant provides a form of identification sufficient to identify the applicant.
