Title

Hunting and fishing licenses, disabled, children under 21 further provided for, Sec. 9-11-54 am'd.

Description

Under existing law, persons who are disabled and receive benefits under certain designated federal and state disability programs are eligible to purchase a fishing or hunting license at a reduced cost. A child who was receiving Social Security benefits as a disabled child, but becomes disqualified for the federal disability benefit based on a change in family circumstances, loses eligibility for a disabled fishing or hunting license.

This bill would specify that the disabled child as discussed above could continue to purchase a disabled fishing or hunting license until the child is age 21.
