INTRODUCED BY   Assembly Member Waldron

                        FEBRUARY 1, 2016

   An act to amend Section 1798.60 of the Civil Code, relating to
information practices.


	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   AB 1735, as introduced, Waldron. Information Practices Act of
1977: personal information.
   The Information Practices Act of 1977 prescribes requirements for
state agencies for the maintenance of personal information, as
defined, and restricts a state agency from disclosing personal
information contained in its records, as specified. The act, among
other things, prohibits a state agency from distributing for
commercial purposes, selling, or renting an individual's name and
address unless specifically authorized by law.
   This bill would make technical, nonsubstantive changes to that
provision.
   Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: no.
State-mandated local program: no.


THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

  SECTION 1.  Section 1798.60 of the Civil Code is amended to read:
   1798.60.  An individual's name and address  may 
 shall  not be distributed for commercial purposes, sold, or
rented by an agency unless  such   that 
action is specifically authorized by law.
