SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:

Virginia Charity Food Assistance Advisory Board. Abolishes the Virginia Charity Food Assistance Advisory Board. The advisory board was created in 1998 to advise the Board and Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services on the implementation of a Virginia charity food purchase program; to study programs or other ways the Department or other agencies might help to reduce the incidence of hunger, malnutrition, and short-term food shortages among the needy; and to develop recommendations regarding a charity food donation tax credit program. The food purchase program and the charity food donation tax credit program have never been established. Without funding for the food purchase and distribution program, the advisory board cannot carry out its mission. This bill was incorporated into HB 10.
