The bill proposes the repeal of the requirement for the Rural Services Division of the Arkansas Economic Development Commission to submit a biennial report detailing its activities. Specifically, it removes the obligation for the division to prepare and present a comprehensive report every two years, which includes information on assistance activities, legislative recommendations, and data on program activities in rural areas.
By eliminating this reporting requirement, the bill aims to reduce administrative burdens on the division, allowing it to focus more on its core functions rather than on compliance with reporting obligations. The specific legal language pertaining to the report's content and submission timeline has been deleted from the Arkansas Code.
