Original Committee Reference: A. & A.R.
SUMMARY : Makes changes in the statutes necessary to reflect the
changes made by the Governor's Reorganization Plan No. 2 (GRP2),
as required by Government Code 12081, as introduced to the
Legislature on May 3, 2012, and made effective on July 2, 2012.
The Senate amendments make changes to the GRP2 that:
1)Are technical in nature.
2)Address chaptering out issues.
EXISTING LAW : The California Constitution grants the Governor
the authority to reorganize the functions of executive officers
and agencies. Government Code Sections beginning with 12080 set
forth definitions and procedures whereby the Legislature reviews
and reports on the Governor's Reorganization Plan.
The Legislature may choose to vote on the plan or allow the plan
to become effective on the first day after 60 days of continuous
session after receipt of the plan. Once the plan becomes
effective, a bill must be introduced, not later than the next
regular session, effecting such changes in the statutes as may
be necessary to reflect the changes made by the reorganization
plan. Failure to enact such a bill shall not affect the validity
of the plan.
FISCAL EFFECT : According to the Senate Appropriations
Committee, pursuant to Senate Rule 28.8, negligible state costs.
