Kentucky SB35 amends oath requirements for witnesses testifying before legislative committees.
Kentucky SB35 amends the Kentucky Revised Statutes to standardize oath requirements for witnesses testifying before legislative committees. Witnesses must swear to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, similar to court oaths. If a witness refuses to take the oath, they cannot testify. Oaths from previous meetings do not apply to future meetings. Testimony given under oath is subject to penalties for false statements.
