Comment

   See Rule 1101 for suspension of Acts of Assembly.
   This rule does not address the admissibility of evidence. See the Pennsylvania Rules of Evidence and 42 Pa.C.S. §  6101 et seq. concerning the Rules of Evidence for documents.
   Under paragraph (C), the issuing authority is required to provide a certified copy of the report, but only if the request is made within the period that the issuing authority is required to retain the records.
