AB 2401

Bill Subjects

Abstract

Existing law provides that, notwithstanding any other provision of law, any requirement that a state agency send material, information, notices, correspondence, or other communication through the United States mail shall be deemed to include the authority for the state agency to send that material, information, notice, correspondence, or other communication by electronic mail upon the request of the recipient, unless impracticable to do so, or unless contrary to state or federal law. This bill would authorize a business, a government agency, government official, or a person acting with official government authority to communicate with a person in writing by the use of a secure electronic delivery service, as specified.
