Which jurisdiction does Local Law 46 apply to?

• A. Nassau County
• B. New York City
• C. Albany County
• D. Suffolk County

Answer: (A)

Local laws are created by the local government that governs a specific area, so the number on a law stays tied to that jurisdiction. Local Law 46 is part of Nassau County’s codes, meaning it applies to tattoo and body piercing practices within Nassau County boundaries (and is enforced by the county’s health/administrative agencies). It does not automatically apply to New York City, Albany County, or Suffolk County, each of which has its own separate local laws and regulatory framework. So the jurisdiction this law covers is Nassau County.
