Committee advances bill to prune and sunset some statutorily required reports to the committee
Summary
The committee considered a nonpartisan committee bill that would remove outdated statutorily required reports and add sunset provisions for other reports; Representative Wilcox moved to favorably recommend the bill and the motion passed unanimously.
Shad Larson, associate general counsel with the Office of Legislative Research and General Counsel, presented a committee bill that would revise the list of statutorily required reports and presentations to the Law Enforcement and Criminal Justice Interim Committee by removing outdated reports, consolidating reporting where data now flows to the public safety data portal, and adding sunset reviews for certain reports. Larson said the committee receives a relatively high number of statutorily required reports and the bill aims to reduce duplication and allow the committee to review whether a continuing statutory requirement is justified. Representative Wilcox moved that the committee favorably recommend the statutory required reports and presentation amendments as a committee bill file and recommended it to the legislature for passage in the next general session. The committee voice vote was recorded in the transcript as unanimous. The committee took no additional public comment on the bill file during the meeting.
