↓Restricts gun accessmodel confidence 80%
Requires use of drug- and firearm-detecting canines during day care inspections, so more likely that firearms on the premises will be detected and addressed.
When conducting inspections pursuant to this paragraph, the office of children and family services, or a service contracted by such office, shall employ the use of canines specially trained to detect the presence of drugs and firearms.
Why the model tagged it this way: The bill adds a requirement to use trained canines to detect firearms (as well as drugs) during inspections of child day care facilities. This provision substantively addresses firearms by increasing the chance that unauthorized firearms will be found during regulatory inspections of day care premises.
