     1    Section  1.  The correction law is amended by adding a new section 626
     2  to read as follows:
     3    § 626. Records for protection and advocacy services. 1.  Upon  receipt
     4  of a written request for records from the organization designated by the
     5  governor pursuant to subdivision (b) of section five hundred fifty-eight
     6  of  the  executive  law  to provide protection and advocacy services and
     7  administer the protection and  advocacy  system,  the  department  shall
     8  furnish  access  to and provide copies of such records to such organiza-
     9  tion not later than three  business  days  after  the  receipt  of  such
    10  request.  If  such organization states in its written request that there
    11  is probable cause to believe the health or safety of an individual is in
    12  serious and immediate jeopardy or in the case of the death of  an  indi-
    13  vidual  with  a  disability,  the department shall furnish access to and
    14  provide copies of such records within twenty-four hours of  the  receipt
    15  of such written request.
