A. Within ninety (90) days after the Unborn Child Pain

Awareness/Prevention Act becomes law, the State Board of Medical

Licensure and Supervision shall cause to be published, in English

and in each language which is the primary language of two percent

(2%) or more of the population of the state, and shall cause to be

available on the state web site provided for in Section 11 of this

act, printed materials with the following statement concerning

unborn children of twenty (20) weeks gestational age: "By twenty

(20) weeks gestation, the unborn child has the physical structures

necessary to experience pain. There is evidence that by twenty (20)

weeks gestation unborn children seek to evade certain stimuli in a

manner which in an infant or an adult would be interpreted to be a

response to pain. Anesthesia is routinely administered to unborn

children who are twenty (20) weeks gestational age or older who

undergo prenatal surgery."

The materials shall be objective, nonjudgmental and designed to

convey only accurate scientific information about the human fetus at

the various gestational ages.

B. The materials referred to in subsection A of this section

shall be printed in a typeface large enough to be clearly legible.

The web site provided for in Section 11 of this act shall be

maintained at a minimum resolution of 70 DPI (dots per inch). All

pictures appearing on this web site shall be a minimum of 200x300

pixels. All letters on the web site shall be a minimum of 11 point

font. All information and pictures shall be accessible with an

industry standard browser requiring no additional plug-ins.

C. The materials required under this section shall be available

at no cost from the State Board of Medical Licensure and Supervision

upon request and in appropriate number to any person, facility, or

hospital.
