BILL NUMBER: AB 74 VETOED DATE: 09/30/2015 To the Members of the California State Assembly: I am returning Assembly Bill 74 without my signature. This bill would require the Department of Social Services to inspect licensed child care facilities once a year beginning January 1, 2019. Earlier this year, the 2015-16 Budget Act increased the frequency of inspections of licensed child care facilities to once every three years. Further increasing the frequency of these inspections may be a worthy goal, but the cost of this change should be considered in the budget process. Sincerely, Edmund G. Brown Jr.
