The bill aims to repeal 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.
The legal language that is being deleted from current law includes the specific mandate for the division to submit this report on January 1, along with the various types of information that were previously required to be included. By enacting this bill, the General Assembly seeks to eliminate this reporting requirement, thereby reducing the administrative burden on the division.
