PURPOSE:

Requires the department of health to publish certain reports on the

ment of health's website.

ment on opioid products sold or distributed in New York, the annual $100
million dollar stewardship payments were formulated to place the finan-
cial burden of the opioid crisis upon the companies that are making
billions in profits. The program's funding was directed to be used for
support programs operated by the Office of Addiction Services and
