Introduced by: Stanley C. Walker | all patrons ... notes | add to my profiles
SUMMARY:
Child care. Authorizes the Commissioner of the Department of Social Services to issue special orders to child welfare agencies which fail to comply with provisions of law or regulation, thereby causing an adverse impact on the health, safety or welfare of children in their care. The special orders will be issued after a hearing and will be considered a case decision. The special order may include civil penalties of not more than $500 for each violation, may require child welfare agencies to contact custodial parents or guardians in writing regarding health and safety violations, and may restrict such agencies from receiving public funds. This bill was recommended by the Joint Legislative Audit and Review Commission in its 1997 Follow-Up Review of Child Day Care in Virginia. This bill is identical to House Bill 1386.
