#HB1651requiring (SWAT) units to use tactical cameras KILLED 200 to 122 #nhhouse #nhpolitics

HB 1651-FN, requiring the division of state police to equip special weapons and tactics (SWAT) units or teams with tactical cameras.  MAJORITY:  INEXPEDIENT TO LEGISLATE.  MINORITY:  OUGHT TO PASS.

Rep. Kenneth Kreis for the Majority of Criminal Justice and Public Safety: This bill requires the division of state police to equip special weapons and tactics (SWAT) units or teams with tactical cameras.  Unfortunately, the proposal does not include repairs or replacements when necessary.   The bill falls short in providing for training and use of the equipment and the fiscal note does not match with DOS cost sheet, the difference is almost $60,000.  Vote 13-3.
