An Act To Amend Title 7 Of The Delaware Code Relating To Hunting, Trapping, And Fishing Licenses. [HB-61]
Section 505 of Title 7 allows certain members of the military who live and/or serve in Delaware to obtain a fishing license in Delaware regardless of their legal state of residency. This bill clarifies the law to permit members of Delaware’s National Guard who are residents of neighboring states to like-wise obtain a Delaware fishing license. The current wording of the section inadvertently excludes National Guard members because they are not on “full-time active duty” status.

An Act To Amend Title 24 Of The Delaware Code Relating To Parental Consent For Abortion. [HB-80]
This bill changes the Parental Notice of Abortion Act to the Parental Consent for Abortion Act. Because the General Assembly saw fit to pass a law requiring parental consent for minors under 18 using tanning beds, it seems to follow that requiring parental consent for minor young women to obtain abortions instead of just notification is quite reasonable. Therefore, the age for consent has been raised from 16 to 18. The bill removes the definition of “licensed mental health professional”, and makes other changes that have been approved as constitutionally
