        (a)  Regulations.--The department shall have power to make
     rules and regulations pursuant to this chapter, with respect to
     performance of abortions and with respect to facilities in which
     abortions are performed, so as to protect the health and safety
     of women having abortions and of premature infants aborted
     alive. These rules and regulations shall include, but not be
     limited to, procedures, staff, equipment and laboratory testing
     requirements for all facilities offering abortion services.
        (b)  Reports.--Within 30 days after the effective date of
     this chapter, every facility at which abortions are performed
     shall file, and update immediately upon any change, a report
     with the department, containing the following information:
            (1)  Name and address of the facility.
            (2)  Name and address of any parent, subsidiary or
        affiliated organizations, corporations or associations.
            (3)  Name and address of any parent, subsidiary or
        affiliated organizations, corporations or associations having
        contemporaneous commonality of ownership, beneficial
        interest, directorship or officership with any other
        facility.
     The information contained in those reports which are filed
     pursuant to this subsection by facilities which receive State-
     appropriated funds during the 12-calendar-month period
     immediately preceding a request to inspect or copy such reports
     shall be deemed public information. Reports filed by facilities
     which do not receive State-appropriated funds shall only be
     available to law enforcement officials, the State Board of
     Medicine and the State Board of Osteopathic Medicine for use in
     the performance of their official duties. Any facility failing
     to comply with the provisions of this subsection shall be
     assessed by the department a fine of $500 for each day it is in
     violation hereof.
