SUMMARY AS PASSED: (all summaries)

Civil remedies; immunity from lead-based paint poisoning. Defines "lead-based paint maintenance" under the immunity from liability statute for lead-based paint poisoning. The bill grants immunity to the owner or agent of residential property if the owner or agent who is responsible for lead-based paint maintenance discloses to the lessee the presence of any known lead-based paint and/or lead-based paint hazards about which the owner has actual knowledge.  Such disclosure requirements continue through the tenancy if new information arises. Prior to the case in chief, the bill allows a hearing on responsive pleadings that assert such immunity.
