Surveillance Camera for Commercial Establishments Act of 2025

An Act Mandating the Use of Surveillance Cameras for the Security and Safety of Commercial Establishments

In plain language

The bill would require most commercial businesses of 50 m² or more to install working CCTV cameras inside and outside, keep recordings for at least 30 days, and allow law‑enforcement access only in specific situations. Small neighborhood stores below a DTI‑set income level could be exempt, and violations could be punished with a fine or up to six months in jail.
