Title: An Act To Amend Titles 11 And 29 Of The Delaware Code Relating To The Licensing Of Individuals To Carry Deadly Weapons Concealed.

The current statutory scheme dates as far back as the Code Revision of 1974 and was not designed to handle the volume of applicants and licensees that are being experienced today, a volume that has at times unfairly overwhelmed both the Courts and the Office of the Attorney General.
