Legislative staff would study restoring a former review committee’s work

The Office of Legislative Management would study whether restoring the former committee’s work and staffing is practical. The study would consider placing the former Legislative Program Review and Investigations Committee’s duties, responsibilities, and staffing within the Government Oversight Committee. The study would examine additional staffing needs, resource costs, and potential benefits. The report would include findings and any recommendations for legislation. This measure would require a study, without itself restoring the former committee’s work. If enacted, the requirement would take effect upon passage. The office’s executive director would submit the report to the Government Oversight Committee no later than January 1, 2027.
