Recommend a change to the Cut Off to add “If the records involve a minor client, then the cut off shall be after the age the minor reaches the age of majority."
Update: After discussions with the agency, it is determined there is no need to update the cut-off to include the minor client reaching the age of majority. No recommended changes. 09/26/2025
