SB 11 State agencies; eliminates requirement to report on costs of federal mandates.

SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:

Agency reports on the costs of federal mandates. Eliminates the requirement for agencies to report the cost of federal mandates to the Department of Planning and Budget on Form FM. An agency's estimate of the cost of a mandate may not have been accurate if the mandate is conditioned upon an event that has not happened or there exist overlaps in compliance. The bill also deletes a provision superseded by the creation of the Virginia Information Technology Agency in 2003 and the requirement for each agency head to designate an existing employee to act as the agency's information technology resource. This bill is a recommendation of 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).
