SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:

Advisory Council on the Virginia Business-Education Partnership Program. Abolishes the Advisory Council on the Virginia Business-Education Partnership Program and the Virginia Business-Education Partnership Program. The program was created in 1993 to assist local programs in obtaining federal funding to establish local business-education partnerships. The council was established at the same time to assist the Secretary of Education in implementing the program and facilitating the development of strategic partnerships between the public and private sectors to enhance public education and workforce training. State funding for the program ended in 2001 and federal funding ceased on December 31, 2003. This bill is identical to HB 9, which was recommended by the Joint Subcommittee to Study the Operations, Practices, Duties, and Funding of the Commonwealth's Agencies, Boards, Commissions, Councils, and Other Governmental Entities pursuant to HJR 159 (2002).
