Introduced by M. of A. KAVANAGH, COLTON -- read once and referred to the
  Committee on Corporations, Authorities and Commissions

AN  ACT  to amend the public authorities law, the transportation law and
  the general municipal law, in relation to establishing  a  closed-cir-
  cuit television system and surveillance personal privacy act

  THE  PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM-
BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

  Section 1. Legislative  findings  and  declarations.  The  legislature
finds  and  declares  the state has increasingly used camera systems and
other surveillance technologies to monitor the daily legal activities of
its citizens. Even in public and quasi-public forums, increasing use  of
government surveillance has a chilling effect on the freedoms and activ-
ities  of  its citizens. Therefore, the legislature finds that the state
has an obligation to establish a policy in which  the  public's  privacy
interests  are  protected  where camera systems are increasingly used in
traffic enforcement, surveillance and other areas. Where these  surveil-
lance  systems are used, the state has an obligation to protect an indi-
vidual's right of personal privacy,  and  consequently,  must  take  all
steps  to  protect   personal privacy in all aspects of system planning,
design, deployment, operation and maintenance and shall not  collect  or
disseminate any personal identifier information.
  S 2. The public authorities law is amended by adding a new article 1-B
to read as follows:
                               ARTICLE 1-B
            PUBLIC AUTHORITY CLOSED-CIRCUIT TELEVISION SYSTEM
                  AND SURVEILLANCE PERSONAL PRIVACY ACT
