Plain-language change summary

The revised version of SB 1296 has added a requirement for an intern to have been licensed for at least one year before they can qualify for full licensure as a funeral director. This means that future candidates will need more experience in the field before they can officially direct funerals. This change is significant as it aims to ensure that funeral directors have adequate hands-on experience, which could ultimately lead to higher standards of care and professionalism in the industry.
