Committee: Code Revision

House Sponsor: Burke Day

HB 220 eliminates the �Georgia Criminal Justice Improvement Council�, which is not currently in operation.

This bill received a Do Pass recommendation from the Code Revision Committee and comes to the House Floor under the Open Rule. 

Vice-Chairman Ed Setzler�s Opinion of this legislation:

WHAT PROBLEM/OPPORTUNITY DOES THIS LEGISLATION ADDRESS?

The Criminal Justice Improvement Council was established over 20 years ago by the General Assembly. The council is inactive and is subject to being eliminated with the support of its members.

THIS LEGISLATION:

• Reduces the Size of Government:

It eliminates a board that was created by statute and serves no ongoing purpose.

• Reduces the Tax Burden on our Citizens:

Yes, but minimal impact.
