HB 697 Child support enforcement; privatization.

Introduced by: Robert F. McDonnell | all patrons    ...    notes | add to my profiles

SUMMARY:

Child support enforcement; privatization. Allows for the privatization of child support enforcement field work administrative functions and central office payment processing functions under the supervision of the State Department of Social Services, previously done only on a pilot basis beginning in 1996. The legislation continues to require the State Board of Social Services to establish guidelines regarding the privatization of such functions. The bill removes the "on a pilot basis" language in the provision that authorizes the Attorney General to contract with private attorneys for the provision of legal services to the Division of Child Support Enforcement. The Department and the Attorney General are to continue to submit annual reports to the Governor and the General Assembly providing a detailed summary and evaluation of the privatization of child support enforcement programs. This bill is identical to Senate Bill 289.
