HB 108-FIDUCIARY ACCESS TO DIGITAL ASSETS
2:21:06 PM
CHAIR COGHILL announced the consideration of HB 108. [CSHB
108(JUD) was before the committee.]
2:21:28 PM
SARA PERMAN, Staff, Representative Matt Claman, Alaska State
Legislature, stated that this legislation is a companion to
Senator Hughes's bill regarding fiduciary access to digital
assets. Both sponsors believe this topic is important because
Alaska has a large and rapidly growing senior population. The
House Judiciary Committee passed a committee substitute (CS)
that adopts the language in SB 16. She deferred explanation to
Ms. Behr.
2:22:35 PM
DEBRA BEHR, Member, Alaska Delegation, Uniform Law Commission,
Juneau, Alaska confirmed that CSHB 108(JUD) incorporates the
material in SB 16. The only major difference was in Section 1
that deals with the Alaska statutory power of attorney form.
Someone who uses the statutory form found on page 3, lines 26-
28, can affirm that they want their fiduciary to have access to
their electronic communications. She provided an example to
demonstrate the importance of an individual either signing the
online tool or giving explicit authority to access their
electronic communications. This is a statutory form that needs
to be changed, she said
CHAIR COGHILL found no questions and solicited a motion.
2:25:16 PM
SENATOR COSTELLO moved to report CSHB 108(JUD), version R, from
committee with individual recommendations and attached fiscal
note(s).
SENATOR COGHILL found no objection and CSHB 108(JUD) was
reported from the Senate Judiciary Standing Committee.
