Summary of landlord-tenant code in CT

Hi there,

I'm getting ready to set up a lease with my first new tenant in Connecticut and I'm getting my disclosures together.  There's one disclosure I don't understand -- I even called the Attorney General's office but haven't been able to get an answer.  Here's the disclosure:

"Summary of Landlord-Tenant code. A summary of the code, as prepared by the Consumer Protection Unit of the Attorney General's office, must be given to tenants at the beginning of the rental term. Failure to do so enables the tenant to plead ignorance of the law as a defense."

I looked online and can't find any sort of summary form.  Is this an actual disclosure that is available freely for me to give to my tenants, or do I just say "Go to the web to better understand the landlord-tenant code?"

Thanks!
Robert.
