1An Act to create 255.056 (2g) of the statutes;
relating to: Wisconsin drug

Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Under current law, the Department of Health Services is required to maintain
a drug repository program under which persons may donate certain drugs or
supplies that may be used by other individuals identified by the department by rule.
This bill allows DHS to partner with out-of-state drug repository programs. This
bill also allows out-of-state persons to donate to the drug repository program in
Wisconsin, and persons in Wisconsin to donate to participating drug repository
programs in other states. Further, this bill directs DHS to study and implement a
centralized physical drug repository program.
For further information see the state fiscal estimate, which will be printed as
an appendix to this bill.
The people of the state of Wisconsin, represented in senate and assembly, do
