HB 826 Lobbyist reports; signatures.

Introduced by: Samuel A. Nixon, Jr. | all patrons    ...    notes | add to my profiles

SUMMARY AS PASSED: (all summaries)

Lobbyist reports. Recognizes the provision in the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act (UETA) that prohibits a signature from being denied legal effect or enforceability solely because it is in electronic form. Present law requires original or electronic signatures by principals and lobbyists on the lobbyist annual disclosure statement. This amendment removes the words "or electronic" because UETA already treats electronic signatures as originals. The format must still be specified by the Secretary of the Commonwealth.
