SB 17-233

Senate Bill 17-233 is a Colorado law that deals with how often the Department of Law needs to report its activities to the state legislature. The bill cancels some old reporting requirements and makes others permanent, so the department will continue to provide regular updates without any set end date. Since the bill has been signed into law, the Department of Law now follows these new reporting guidelines indefinitely.

Official Summary

Statutory Revision Committee. Pursuant to section 24-1-136 (11)(a)(I), Colorado Revised Statutes, any report that is required to be made to the general assembly by an executive agency or the judicial branch on a periodic basis expires on the day after the third anniversary of the date on which the first report was due, unless the general assembly, acting by bill, continues the requirement. The bill addresses the reporting requirements of the department of law. Section 1 of the bill repeals reports that were scheduled to repeal according to section 24-1-136 (11)(a)(I). Currently there is no repeal date in the organic statute. Sections 2 and 3 of the bill continue the reporting requirements indefinitely.(Note: This summary applies to this bill as introduced.)
