What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, the Department of Natural Resources issues approvals that

authorize the hunting, fishing, or trapping of specified wild animals. Current law

generally prohibits a person from transferring an approval to another person, with

some exceptions. One exception is that certain approvals may be transferred to a

minor or a person with a disability if the holder of the approval applies prior to the

first day of the applicable open season, if the minor or person with a disability is

eligible to use the approval, and if the minor or person with a disability has not

previously been transferred an approval of that type.

This bill eliminates the limitation that a person with a disability may be

transferred an approval only if he or she has not previously been transferred that

type of approval.
